Milltek for TDI

[N8]

Where is the cheapest place in the country to get the Milltek cat-back exhaust for the 2.0TDI (resonated)?

Thanks

 

[Boydie]

I got mine from Awesome - cheapest I found, think it was £320 delivered to Northern Ireland

(I think I need to shrink my signature!)

 

[N8]

I know boydie, but sarah is saying to me £414 delivered!!

 

[Boydie]

Flip me! I also checked these boys out and worked them off each other - have a nosey

After looking at it - they have put their prices way up too

 

[N8]

Thanks once again boydie!!! :icon_thumright:

Get the Turbo-Back Miltek, it's worth it so much more!

 

[N8]

Whys that emzino?

 

[Boydie]

The downpipe (£140) has a bigger diameter so it lets more exhaust gases out therefore more power and faster reving to a certain limit, maybe a bit more noise!

But its a nightmare to get fitted i think!

 

[N8]

I can't be bothered with that. I'm only getting the milltek cuz the 140 exhaust looks horrible! If I had the 170 exhaust, I probably wouldn't bother!

 

[Boydie]

Why not consider going to your local powerflow dealer or someone that sells tips and get them welded on?

You could take the standard exhaust, cut off the current pipes, file it smooth, and get the new pipe welded on?

you could buy the pipes for a votex rear skirt and weld them on - they would be OE Audi at least!

 

[Beddie]

Why not go for the non-resonated version mate? Cheaper than the resonated system...

Adds a little deeper note to the exhaust without being too loud or 'chavvy' whereas the resonated version sounds no different to the stock system, non-res is the one i'm eventually going for.. :icon_thumright:

 

[Boydie]

Agreed about the noise levels - the resonated is no louder if at all than the standard one!

It will "wooooosh" though coming off boost - some people like it, some don't, seems to be a comedy factor in Northern Ireland!

 

[N8]

Looks like non-resonated it is. I thought of resonated because the diesel will then be quieter but if thats not gonna make a difference, might as well save myself some money!!

 

[Boydie]

Its lighter too lol one less silencer!

 

[N8]

Guess thats one benefit! How long did it take you to fit your exhaust?

 

[N8]

Did you sell your old one on ebay?

I agree, if you just want to change the look of the exhaust and not waste lots of money then do this. I did and am happy with the results. Cost was only £65. Took 1 hr. See my thread and pics below. Plus you get to keep the standard exhaust so no probs with warranty.

It took me and a mate about an hour in total to jack the car up, remove the old exhaust and fit the new one and allign it - easy job to be honest lol

I still have my old exhaust which is stored in the shed! keeping it though to stick back on as my miltek will fit a golf gti

 

[kettle]

does anyone have know of any vids of the tdi's with a miltek resonated or not?

may be thinking of getting one but bit worried about noise!
the fact the resonated isnt louder appeals to me:icon_thumright:

 

[Amchlolor]

but bit worried about noise!

Good on you, there are many don't give a fig.

 

[kettle]

dont praise me too much bowfer my first car had a loud exhaust

question though is there much point in the exhuast if it is resonated? performance wise?

 

[N8]

I'm not getting mine for performance just looks.

 

[kettle]

sorry fella weren very clear didnt mean just you
was just talking in general about the exhausts

 

[N8]

I know. I'm gonna do the powerflow tips, I can't be assed spending £400 on 2 pipes!! :icon_thumright:

 

[kettle]

how much does it cost for powerflow to weld a couple oftrims on?

 

[N8]

Cook said it cost £65!! For the lot! Happy days

 

[kettle]

that is alright and cheaper than audi!
i may visit my local exhaust place at the weekend:thumbsup:

 

[N8]

Indeed Kettle, Indeed!

 

[Boydie]

There is little, if any noise difference when you fit a milltek exhaust!!!

 

[N8]

haha

I think these have been put on my 140, when i get her i'll post some pics.

 

[TDI-line]

How much would the insurance be with a milltek?

 

[kettle]

i doubt they would notice they look standard

unless you get 6 8inch pipes coming out of your boot or something stupid like that!!

i i can say is why?

 

[N8]
