You see Awesome GTI are so Awesome, so they now things very early!!!

They have also got a decent rolling road, they were testing a Cupra R, and flaming hell they were giving it some!!

They also develop ECU Remapping stuff as well, they take your car on and do the do, the data is then changed and improved then they put it on to the car, it's like an all in one custome shop.

Got mine today. Would have got it fitted but the box it comes in is too big to get in the car!

uncle albert · Oct 6th, 2005, 03:10 PM

I've just been informed that my Milltek has landed at home - excellent!

Just a shame I won't have chance to fit it for another month!

Hi all, Glad they are starting to arrive!!!

I have had mine fitted today at my local garage. Fitted it no problems!!!
I have the Cooper and crist it is good, the deep sound, then when you change down in high rev's (If you now what i mean) the burbles and pop's, it is everything I wanted it to be!!!!

No complaints here at all!!

Mines here!

Having it fitted some time over the weekend

paul wheadon · Oct 6th, 2005, 06:07 PM

Picked up mine today, getting it fitted tommorow morning. It really looks a good bit of quality workmanship. Its even supplied with everything you need, right down to the latex gloves...............mmmmmmmm nice!!
A tip to anyone wanting to pick theirs up in their MINI, take the Milltek out of the box. It will fit in no problem with the seats down as its in three parts for the 'S' .
I'm sure if you ask nicely, Dean will skip the box and packaging for you.
On a final note, big thanks to UKC4 (Adam), top bloke, and a good call getting it from AGTI who have been excellent. Just a shame I didnt have more time to look around the place.
Will post at weekend after driving around with the windows down listening to those lovely Milltek tones...........

Just had mine fitted and took it for a drive. Internally, you notice a slightly deeper sound when accelerating with a deep boominess between 3500-4000rpm. But this is only when accelerating, cruising round town or at 70mph there is no more noise in the cabin than on a standard car. Which is good.

...and does anyone know what the market is like for selling the old exhaust? It's pretty big as the centre pipe is all one piece with the rear section.

paul wheadon · Oct 7th, 2005, 02:23 PM

Mines now fitted as well. The guys at ATS had a minor problem with the slash cut tailpipes as they were touching the cutaway of the valance on the rear bumper, so they put in a different rubber hanger to leave a nice gap so they wont rattle against the it.
Apart from that, looks good, not too loud and 'pops' away nicely when you take your foot off the accelarator.
Money well spent................

uncle albert · Oct 7th, 2005, 08:46 PM

Good to hear chaps! Any thoughts on whether I'll have any probs with it clearing my Aero bumper?

paul wheadon · Oct 7th, 2005, 08:56 PM

Just try and get done what ATS done to mine. All they did was get a rubber hanger that had holes spaced farther apart than the stock MINI ones. That way it pushes the tailpipes further towards the ground ensuring adequate clearance from the bumper.

On another note, I have now noticed after looking at other pics of MINIs with Millteks is that my tailpipes seem to be sticking out too far. I'm going back in the morning to put it back on the hoist so they can loosen the clamp on the middle pipe and slide it further up towards the silencer that comes off the original CAT.
Be aware of this, little tip.............

Shorty · Oct 8th, 2005, 09:48 AM

Just had mine fitted & it sounds absolutely fab

Still pops, but it sounds so much deeper

A big thanks to UKC4 for organising this group buy

monkeynuts · Oct 8th, 2005, 11:17 AM

3rd gear gently to 4000rpm and keep it there

BWOOOOOAAAAAAARRRRRR

ahh there is a heaven

jon vital · Oct 8th, 2005, 07:46 PM

One other advantage of the Milltek, it's quite a bit lighter than the standard system.

UKC4 · Oct 9th, 2005, 05:32 PM

you will find after you have run it in that the pos get a little more noticable and the souns gets a tad bit deeper...... And ohhh ye it is good!!! I have the aero kit and my system cleared it.

Parc77 · Oct 9th, 2005, 05:39 PM
