exhaust

[rydoo]

hey guys,im looking at getting a exhaust for my lcr,can anyone recommend a good site to get one? i dont wana have to pay through the nose for it.

Thanks in advance.

Any of the site sponsers on here for a start. Are you looking at full system, ie turbo back or just cat back?
Popular choices are blueflame, miltek, piper.

thinking just cat back at the moment,ave only ever herd good things about miltek,think that may be my best bet

Yep miltek are top quality, although the tail pipe isnt to everyones taste, very good build and fit perfect, id go for non res (without centre silencer) if i were you, not too loud on tick over, slightly deeper than standard, but above 4000 rpm it sounds great. Very high quality stainless steel used.

I have been doing research into this ie youtube etc and i really want to know what a non res sounds like. i dont want a really loud droneing exhaust. just a nice sound on exceleration only.

I take the resonated is silent just like the original exhaust is?

Yeh, the res system is just like standard, with non res its good for motorway driving and such, but get revs above 4000 rpm and it comes alive, sounds very good on tick over too, ive got 3" down pipe too which increased noise too but ive noticed as miles have piled on to new exhaust and carbon bulit up it increased its noise slightly.
The miltek has a very clean rasp to it at high revs.

i dont really have a clue on that one mate. but im sure you can. if you ring awesome gti im sure they can help.

Pretty sure you can buy a non res pipe which will just bolt in place, someone correct if I'm wrong though.

could someone tell the bore size of the miltek please?

 

[godber225r]

If someone could do a video of the sound on tickover and road use of their milltek non res system it would be much appreciated

Just want to double check the sound so its not too load. Peace of mind and all that!!!

Whats the condition of it and why don't you want it anymore? Is it cat-back and res or non-res?

Ok then mate. Wherebouts do you live as I live in Canterbury in Kent? If you live too far away would you be prepared to wrap it up and I arrange a courier?

id have to say that i would avoid the piper. my tail pipe is rusting within a week of being cleaned up and if i want a replacement i have to pay postage, remove it and wait around a week without a car which at the moments not possible.
