Milltek exhaust

[yourtheguy]

Evening all, i've just bought a milltek exhaust system with the sports cats to go on my V8V, just looked on millteks website and can't seem to find any graphs with the power gains or torque curve of the standard car verses the car with the system fitted.
Has anyone had the same system fitted? what do you think of it and how much of a difference does it make in the power delivery, and how much more noise does it make?

Thanks Dixie.

Wait. So "yourtheguy" who bought the Milltek exhaust for his car without knowing anything about it? See what I did there? LOL. I crack myself up!

P.S. gramatically, shouldn't it be "you'retheguy" or at least "youretheguy"?

Forget power increases with exhausts.

Biggest saving you get is weight (not seen a Milltek exhaust. Tubis are probably a third the size of OEM).

And the noise is the main benefit.

Bargain, rather than bargin - but this one presumably?:

It could well be the one but i can't check the link because i'm in work and all the social sites like ebay and Facebook are blocked.
As for the spelling and grammer not very good at them but i can't be perfect at everything.

It's the only one on eBay, so if that's where you got it then that'll be it. Looks like a good price as it includes the sports cats. I saw the advert but didn't bid as I've only just got my car and it's loud enough for me I think. Will be interesting to know what the sound is like when you've got it fitted.

It's a nice bit of kit, in very good condition but sadly will have to wait a couple of weeks to be fitted.
Once it's on i'll have to sus out how to put a youtube vid on of the noise she makes.

A good set of 200 cell sports cats on a V8V should make around 14-15BHP and the exhaust another 4-5BHP. 20BHP would be a very satisfatory result, but you should get pretty close to that if you don't see 20.

I hope it sounds ok.....

I had a Milltek exhaust system on my M3 and it sounded really nice, as I liked it on the M3 I had the same fitted to my 911 along with the cats and I hated it..... It sounded awful...

Have you heard one on a Vantage??? Are there any clips on you tube?
