Alternatives to Milltek???

[podgemasterson]

Hey guys,
New member here.
I'm buying a new cat-back system for my gti and had decided to go with the Milltek non res cat back.
But i'm just curious, Is there any others that people would reccomend?
How about scorpion exhausts?
Any input appreciated,
Thanks

I think the popular alternatives are blueflame and BCS

Thanks very much,
I'm just looking for a deeper smoother sound tbh and I'm very new to this sorry!
I'm in ireland here so would have to order online, any companies that carry those brands that you could recommend?

Milltek are well known for a slightly more sophisticated sound.

My second choice would be, without hesitation, BCS and not Blueflame.

Sound is very subjective and so depends what you personally prefer, other than established performance benefits.

Ah right ok,
Maybe I would be best just getting the milltek as planned then,
Especially as I can buy that in Dublin and have it fitted there too.
Cheers guys

Many previous Milltek owners have sold the Milltek system and bought a BCS system, it's one of the reasons I went for a BCS system, forum search will show you lots of people doing this.

I saw the BCS system side by side with a Milltek and the BCS looks much better quality and is a little cheaper too, BCS will ship to you and you can  get it fitted at any decent garage.

There are many happy milltek owners out there but BCS is growing a very good reputation very quickly 

You pay your money you take your choice

Hi!

Try Keith from alloywheels if you're in Dublin. He has great prices!

Cant find anywhere that sells bcs online?

Ya it would be keith I would be buying from if I'm getting the milltek thanks 

Think I will just get milltek now for handiness sake, they get decent reviews anyway and tbh I probably won't notice a difference!

http://www.bcsautomotive.co.uk/contact.php there you go online and contact details, think Like for Like BCS are approx £150-200 cheaper and they have lots of different options available

My advise is see /  hear both and make up your mind!

I have milltek and it sounds great! Quiet when taking it easy and noise when steppend on it!

There is probably a justificiation for this price difference between those 2 brands.

Personally i really think milltek had lost their mojo up untill now but they seem to have upped their game and some of the stuff they are turning out now looks superb. I was considering a bcs but i think i'm going to go back to a milly. Tbh i could do with a listen at a bcs. All i know is wen a milltek is on full beans they sound 

[podgemasterson]

Thanks for the input guys 
Made my mind up, just going to get the milltek.
One reason being i'd like to buy it in ireland to help support our "down the toilet" economy at the moment lol!
Cant wait to get it now,

you cannot also discount the APR options.

you cannot also discount the APR options.

....Certainly 

But they do sound much more brittle, which isn't so great on a 4-pot IMO. It depends what sounds you like best.

I will never buy a Milltek after the amount of them that crack on the DP flange, i.e all of them!

I had one and compared to my new BCS its shocking that they charge more for it.

Make sure you keep your receipt and also make sure that where you get it fitted that Milltek will honour your warranty for when the flange cracks and brackets fall off.

I can say this as I owned one before I get lambasted.
