Nige / BCS is a relative newcomer (but with Blueflame past experience) and active forumite - If not Milltek, I say give BCS the opportunity. They have had nothing but good reports so far.
Cheers Robin - Appreciate that bud  :happy2:

Have you looked at TEFF's thread for inspiration or does 586bhp not appeal?  :driver:

Yep, read it through more than once. There are some lovely parts in there too and one or two ideas for me. 586bhp always appeals Jaz. :drool:

All this exhaust talk is making me feel like a kid in a sweet shop :party:

I have a couple ideas and leads now that are the leading potentials, but I'll keep them a surprise ....for now. :innocent:

What about intakes?

I know from previous experience that the Evoms makes good power, as do the ITG and Forge Twintake systems.

Anything new out there?
I know your dirty little secret :jumpmove:

I'll take a pic of what my black ceramic tips currently look like John after 20k miles / 21 months of use.

Might help in your decision making  :wink:

Here's my (Milltek) black satin tips, also a couple of years old and mileage:



^ These are when clean but they even look good when dirty. Low maintenance  :notworthy:

Robin

I take it yours are stainless steel tips still but in black, and NOT the Ceramic GT100 variety ?

Cos here's how my 2 tips are currently

 



I'll be sending an email to Charlie and Phil at Milltek shortly about the conditions of the tips.

Black tips  :happy2:

Hey Monte
Yes - we get them ceramic coated to order, Justin H4rdy has requested his system with them satin black coated.
We use Camcoat to do the work, it's a varty durable and reliable finish - if you want the finish to last then like everything it costs :happy2:
Cheers
Nige

I think Milltek also use Camcoat but I'm not 100% sure - Would need checking.

Either way, they're not like Lee chungster's.
