    Lauren,

    I've ordered a Milltek TBE for my R which arrives from the Uk tomorrow. Fitting will hopefully be this weekend so I'll let you know what it souonds like.

    Cheers

    In a nutshell, typically the Euro based ones such as Milltek are generally considered "quieter" and thus are often ordered without extra resonators. The Yank ones are generally considered "loud" and I reckon you'd be mad to get an unresonated one. A 2.5-2.75" cat back will always be a better choice than a 3", as the bigger pipes are really on the border of drone. Certainly I recommend against 3" from 42DD and similar USA brands with straight through Magnaflows, and it seems the USA guys and the Aussie guys have very different tolerances to what "drone" exactly is.

    RSC Technology - full 3" unrestricted flow & guaranteed less drone than a stock exhaust. Use different length metal chambers to cancel out the bad sound waves - You can't do that with traditional mufflers unfortunately.

    Given you can get two Eurojet systems for the cost of one APR, you'd have a backup on hand Tim.

    Not cheap but if you want the best check this out:
    VW Golf GTi (VI) Akrapovic Slip-On exhaust system | EVL Motorsports

    I've got an Evolution kit on my Clio and just can't get enough of that sound! Worth every penny if you ask me.

    Ive just installed the Milltek Catback 2.75" Resonated. Its hooked up to my Eurojet DP. Started the engine for the first time and it was so quiet I thought the engine wasnt running. In fact its quieter than stock. My engine is louder.

    I only hope over time it gets louder, I was hoping to get the low burbly sound.
