they cant be as dirty as mine?

i have this sort of residue on mine that wont come off.. asked a mate who works on metal fittings he said id need some industrial chemical cleaner as the residue is melted on to the pipe..

ill have my milltek soon, when i remove this exhaust ill give it a good clean. well try to lol

Yikes!  £1100?!  :shocked:  How much does the regular exhaust cost?  Mine should be good for a while yet, but when it's time to replace it I might have to look at the more expensive option  :wink:

I thought they were a different bore size 2.75 for GTi and 3" for edition 30. If you fit a 2.75 it will fit but will need to be modified.

Happy days if full system is now cheaper, wonder if cat back has been reduced aswell.

Maybe im getting confused with the APR version. That is more expensive

I meant I though the cost was the same - I know the Ed30 version is bigger.

I thought both fit ok, dont remember Ben or Luca mentioning any problems using the slightly smaller downpipe.

Bigger is not always better  :wink:

What it is neg, i know that exhaust of bens was on my car before, but the previous keeper of mine had it modified so it couple'd from his old

Burned out GTi ^^^^^ http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=54105.msg420470#msg420470:shocked:

and he then had it Modified to fit My ed30, hense why it now fits an ed30.

Lets hope lighting doesnt strike twice Ben!

Hey Neg, £880 for full system, that is a good price! I have rung them before as I know they advertise on ebay, only thing is you then have to find somewhere to get it fitted. Did they recomend someone local to them?
