« on: January 21, 2010, 10:20:33 am »

i would like the blueflame due to the responses on here and the "added#" burble when i fit my r32 rear!
 but bf are not able to supply me with their r32 catback system and cant give me a date for when the new development will be ready- i have the dosh in hand and i am a nasty impatient b#gg#r when i want a new toy so do i wa it or do i look at the milly
will that give me what ive heard the bf will in look and burble and drone and noise and vrooom?
if this is too much of a repeat thread can someone point me to the threads as i,m at work and wont get to this till wkend properly and amiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimpatient and want my new ars on the car asap :sad1: :booty:

....

Blueflame will sound slightly harsher and louder (sportier?) and Milltek will sound more sophisticated (Mat and TC are unsophisticated northerners  :P  :wink:) depending on whether resonated or non-resonated systems - Non-res is louder.

Sound is very subjective.

....Don't get me wrong - If I didn't have the exceptionally good relationship I have with Milltek and was buying again, Blueflame would be seriously considered alongside Milltek.

As an enthusiast I enjoy hearing a Blueflame but am not sure the sound is for me (don't forget my age!).

Then Blueflame is deffo a serious contender as far as I'm concerned but I'm very happy with my Milly and the customer service/support I get.

....

I once had an unmarked Police car trail me for 10 miles whose chase was triggered, so he told me, by my Milly working hard up a hill. I didn't get a ticket.

thanks guys
 i have had few email chats with nigel and he hs been very helpful and i would love to buy the whole system-but cost is an issue- and for the catback system  its just time constraint.
i suppose i wait any longer i could almost afford the whole system lol!
thanks again
and i,m thinking i,ll wait. esp as ive got a cambelt to pay for next week :sad1:

Having seen both close up, i think the Blue-flame bespoke route (as Matt alludes to above) would be my preferred option.   you can have it sounding just as you want, and can watch the fit.

There Seems to be have been a few cases of Milltek Unhappiness over the recent times..............

The only thing that would concern me is the noise. Now everyone knows I love a bit of noise from the car (Non res on the R32!  :evilgrin:) but after having one of the Blueflame owners  :innocent: tell me it does there head in on the motorway! I would have to consider this as my Milltek is a perfect gent on the Motorway but then pops and bangs when hot and I want a quick blast!

Either way a Miltek vs Blueflame thread is pointless as either side will defend what they have, human nature!  :happy2:

I agree Nath, it just concerns me with regards the amount of milltek problems.  It would be good to see how many are due to incorrect fit.
