This should be a hoot!

Ordered the Milltek Cat-Back system, ETA is Friday! I am putting it in on Saturday morning!

I removed my Rogue Engineering CAI and went back to stock! (168 bhp) I want to get used to the stock car so that when I put the exhaust and intake back on, I see the "Bigger Picture" of what these two components add to the car!

Wife thinks I'm sick in the head! She just doesn't understand! I need to show her "the way."

Rich_IX · Jan 25th, 2005, 05:43 PM

Nice! A couple of us over here (USA) are upset about that! We want one! The place I ordered it from is down to 1 system left until their next shipment!

We'll do! The pics will go into my gallery, but the video I will take... well, you answered that part now! Thanks!

A few weeks and I will have one too, tomorrow I will order one at one of the two addresses here in the Netherlands I found. Too bad they didn't ship in the group buy here, it costs me more money now, but what the heck compared to all the other stuff I already bought for my baby. Pls post your findings, I'll watch your thread. Thx.

GeoffMM · Jan 25th, 2005, 07:48 PM

check my gallery for pics

CooperSAZ · Jan 25th, 2005, 08:06 PM

If anyone would like pics of a particular part of the exhaust, please let me know ahead of time and I will try to accommodate. Currently, I am going to try and take a pic of the underside of the car (when it is on ramps and jacked up) to show how the resonator links up with the header, and also the connection between the resonator pipe and that short middle piece.

Can't say that I am particularly excited about this paste that I have to include!

CooperSAZ · Jan 29th, 2005, 12:41 AM

Package was pretty large!

I remember reading a thread that said that the manufacturer puts enough bubble wrap in the box to last a lifetime! There weren't kidding!

Here are some pics just taken, tomorrow morning should be fun!

There were no tears in the box or any other signs of damage. As I heard from previous owners in specific threads. This included the hangers busting through and slightly bending! Nothing here!

Have not got the Miltek cat back but have the Miltek manifold and the Rogue CAI and have always said they compliment each other perfectly, you will be ecstatic when you drive your car after the transformation, what you want is someone sitting next to you with a camera to catch that extra large grin on your face then post it here for us all to see....

Yes, truly, I am very pleased with the results! As Randy Webb said, my CAI would be louder than the exhaust. And it just about it! I hear more of the supercharger whine than the exhaust. Although, I imagine the car is louder from the outside, but I don't really care much!
This is a pretty good jump in response, power and GRIN factor! Fun stuff!
