just had my milltek fitted
:D love it. quick question
its getting quite hot and is high against the bumper, has anyone had trouble with it melting the bumper at all?
and my clutch is slipping, i need a new one, I'm on revo stage 1, would anyone recommend an uprated clutch??

Hi mate if you get a chance could you get a vIdeo up of what it sounds like with just a cat back?.. Every video I find is of a full turbo back system!
Cheers

i will probably do another video tomorrow cause my camera was too close and you can't hear it too well. its a bit deeper than standard and the bore on it is massive lol! this is a resonated system so it is quieter and its just what I'm looking for

Really just need to trim the melted bit with a craft knife and should look ok.

i would recommend upgrading the clutch.
stock you have a duall mass flywheel wich is... rubbish
so better get a single mass fly from a G60, it's a bit lighter but you can make it even lighter if you want to.
most people i know who did this made it about 7 - 8Kg.
as for clutch, put something in that can handle the power, easy as that

This is the one I got when my clutch started slipping, with the Lightweight 14lb flywheel

Not sure if its the same as that one on ebay to be honest, looks very similar if not exact
