fry 0 Posted March 19, 2004 looking for an exhaust system for my 1.8 16v. can anyone with a similar car tell me what systems they have? was going to purchase a milltek one through a mates business but they dont do one for the corrados that dont have cat converters. Most of the manufacturers seem to favour the 2.0, g60 and vr6 models. or am i not looking hard enough?? all help mucho appreciado phil Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dazzyvr6 0 Posted March 19, 2004 according to awesomegtis web site the miltek exhaust is the same for the 16v and g60 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted March 19, 2004 I'm pretty sure that most people just fit the G60 system complete with Cat Bypass pipe which then allows it to mate to the standard down pipe on the 1.8 16V.... 8) Have a word with John Mitchell (16VG60), He's a Milltek dealer and knows his stuff when it comes to their systems... 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted March 19, 2004 Heard nothing but good things about getting your own custom Powerflow jobbie installed. Same kind of price as the likes of Milltek but you get to chose the noise from it, and the exhaust tip. Magnex are a regular favourite also :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fry 0 Posted March 19, 2004 I heard that magnex are quite loud tho. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dazzyvr6 0 Posted March 19, 2004 well i actually think my magnex is to quiet Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fry 0 Posted March 19, 2004 just had a look at the magnex site and their range starts from the 1992 models onwards. As I have a 1991 I appear to have dipped out. Same for mongoose. and jetex are cat back systems as well. bugger !!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bournemouth James 0 Posted March 19, 2004 Supersprint do an exhaust for the 1.8 16v, i had one on my old 16v, quite quiet thou, (the way i like it) venom motor sport do them i think http://www.venommotorsport.com/venom/index.html There products section doesent seem to work the moment, try giving them a call Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Furkz 0 Posted March 20, 2004 Milltek systems are honestly really good have loved it since i got one fitted the best thing is that they are not too loud as well very slightly louder than the standard systems but u get a lil rumble on idle which is nice.... 2p ker-plunk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boab 0 Posted March 20, 2004 i just had a custom powerflow exhaust put on today! and it sounds sweet!! £330 from downpipe! went for the twin DTM upswept, gonna take some photos of car tomorrow and get it posted, it really is loud, and as someone said you can have it as loud/low as u want Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
john_wintle 0 Posted March 20, 2004 Milltex, and also if you have a chat with John Mitchell, JM Racing 07974 020031, you can get the custom downpipe as well, that he has designed for the car, mated to the Milltek system. John. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

John. instead of this custom down pipe would the cat bypass pipe from miltek do the job ?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted March 21, 2004 instead of this custom down pipe would the cat bypass pipe from miltek do the job ?? Yup, the cat bypass would allow you to fit a G60 system onto your 16V... The custom down pipe is an upgrade which would mean a better flow rate through the system and that you'd have a FULL stainless system from the manifold back... 8) Much reccomended... 8) Have a word with John and see what he reccomends, he'll know and talk you through your options... 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
