I have just come back from having my new exhaust fitted. The guy in the garage said that it was the best quality that he had seen on an aftermarket exhaust, and it was a doddle to fit with no alignment problems at all.

The best thing is the noise that the car makes........."ooohhh" I think I've just had a moment.

any of you out there that have got a 220 estate I can highly recommend it.

It transformed my car...

I love the deep grumble when knocking around town.

The system looks the bee's too, but its only noticable when you stick you head under the car.

did your sound better after a week or too?

my miltekk really has settled in now and i love the way it sounds, it got better after a bit of time being on?

Took a little while to completely settle down, but think I did a thousand miles in the first week or so...

Listened to the video and thought it sounded a bit quite, then realised my speakers were turned off :doh:
Sounded good once I turned speakers back on :L

I agree with the warming up - the pops and crackle really come on then. Mine took about a week or so before it really started to growl and now it is just awesome all the time. I get a few heading turning now when i pull away which is nice.

(Heard some one else drive the car away the other week and I must say I was very impressed with the noise my car was making!!) :L

eally need one of these in my life. Sounds so good. Only seen videos but it seems to sound a lot nicer than the Miltek and Blueflame videos I've seen. Anyone got any comments on real world comparisons because I know videos don't always catch the sound of an exhaust too well.

At a constant speed the sound inside the cabin isn't really noticeable - it's a bit like the standard system. There is no booming.

Give it some beans and it really does growl, heading towards more of a howl as you get towards the red line. :)

At idle it burbles away quite happily. Enough to sound purposeful without being chav.

Around town it has a deep burble to it... especially between 2000-2600rpm, but again, not boomy.

Drop a cog though, or blip it on the over run and you get lots of pops and crackles (like the video).

I'm based near Daventry in Northants, if you're local drop me a PM and we can arrange to meet up.

I've not been in a Blueflame'd car, but I've been in a few Milltek ones. The Milltek does sound a bit "brighter"
