Mrbaldhead 10 Posted July 19, 2016 Currently running a stock system with a BMC induction kit and it sounds amazing but I am a bit of a sucker for a loud exhaust note. I only drive it on the occasional Sunday if its dry and need more VR6 notes in my life. It seems the top runners are a Supersprint or Milltek. I mean how ridiculous is a Milltek Non-Res system as this sounds like the kit for me, and it has a proven power increase and weight reduction? YES I know there are previous threads about this but I want an exhaust that will occasionally pop and bang on a hot day..... No I am not a chav ;) Ian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZpog 10 Posted July 19, 2016 Had an un-resonated Powerflow on my valver and it was loud (not an issue) but droned badly (not good on motorways). Replaced with a resonated Jetex (fruity but not loud) with no obvious power difference but I could drive faster without the misses moaning about the noise. Jetex was the exhaust recommended on here at the time I needed one, possibly as Milltek had ceased production then. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fendervg 33 Posted July 19, 2016 Original VAG exhaust or Milltek resonated would be my choice. Unless you work on your engine you won't see any real power gains, just more noise and drone. Are you running any engine mods? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robrado974 1 Posted July 19, 2016 I have a Jetex , sounds great to me . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
p0l1wrath 10 Posted July 19, 2016 I, probably not to many peoples taste, have a 6-2-1 downpipe, straight through to scorpion back box, at either 2.25" or 2.5" (can't ever remember) and yes there is a little bit of drone whilst climbing the revs, but when your sitting at any speed there isn't much drone at all, drove to Germany and back with this setup, and wouldn't call it annoying, but then again I'm also a sucker for a loud exhaust.

Jim Bowen 1 Posted July 19, 2016 I have a magnex catback system and really impressed with the quality of it. But it was from before they went bust and someone bought them out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wompa 0 Posted July 19, 2016 Professional 2.5" stainless catback with two silencers on my VR6. Love it! Cracle and pops ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

massbad69 10 Posted July 19, 2016 Just got a custom exhaust on my VR and it has a superb sound, pops when required and looks great. £400 from downpipe incl decat pipe. I always get custom exhausts rather than off the shelfers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hisnibs 10 Posted July 19, 2016 Dual Borla!.. to make things even less definitive :lol: Saying that, it's still living on me lounge floor and you'd probably want the single muffler so maybe I should hush me gums. Miltek up for grabs though! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jimbo 0 Posted July 20, 2016 Had a full Magnex on my Storm years ago & was very impressed. Not much help tho as I don't think you can pick them up now! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mrbaldhead 10 Posted July 20, 2016 Thanks for the replies so far :) see mixed opionions as expected. Will have to do some more research. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fendervg 33 Posted July 20, 2016 I always thought there was nothing wrong with the OE exhaust for a standard or mildly up-rated car - it was long life, good quality, solid and very refined and suited to the engine - but damn expensive to buy new!. I fitted a Milltek, and though I'm happy with it, I now wish I had kept the original for a few years more and would go back if I could. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hisnibs 10 Posted July 20, 2016 Milltek up for grabs? For sale? Yep. Excellent condition. Not entirely sure it'll be loud enough for you though as it has 2 mufflers. Saying that, I've been running it with a standard cat so pretty sure a decat will unveil some pop. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
