Milltek Exhausts

[GTsport]

Hi Folks,

Want to get a Milltek exhaust sorted in the next couple of weeks.  Just wondered where's the best place to source one from?

Or is it a case of Milltek having a price structure for retailers to work to?

Based in the midlands but don't mind travelling if there's a good deal to be had

I believe Milltek have a pricing structure.

Some dealers might give you free fitting others may take some money off.

Statllers in Sheffield are Milltek dealers. Good bunch of chaps too.

Roadrunner in Nottingham always used to do some cracking offers for Milltek, not sure if they still do but they used to sell on eBay.

Thanks guys

Only trouble with the milltek is the back box hangs below the rear valance which is a bit annoying

....I thought they had revised that. Mine doesn't.

Robin, isn't yours a custom Milltek rather than an "off the shelf" exhaust?

Not sure if they have Robin- wish i could get mine sorted

Good to see you back on here mate 

I've got a full Milltek lined up for earlier in the new year when my mate sells his Leon FR. I've also wondered about the back box but have considered getting it cut out and have a suitcase delete pipe made up. Obviously not as bad with a second hand one. Don't know whether I'd want to do it to a brand spanker.

Perfect reply Ian, do you want a job?

i was thinking about doing that to mine as Nig at Bcs would do it but it might be to noisy or i get a whole new exhaust made by bcs and sell my milly

....Yes it's custom but using their components. I think my backbox is the same as the one Milltek manufactured for VWR (except that mine is a quad exit).

Ah right, never even considered that. Would an edition 30 valance cover it better than a standard gti one?!

That's what I like about the votex valance I've currently got on. Sits quite low to the ground and makes the car look more planted. Finding one with the exhaust cut outs is like trying to fing rocking horse poo!

Cheers Matto. Been quite as I was contemplating getting a new car and giving the golf to the misses, but I've not finished with it yet 

Yeah I think it'd be a brave move to chop a new back box up but would be worth a go on a used system. I'm wanting the turbo downpipe too so would be a bit wary of it sounding a bit too loud with a straight through system.
