Milltek is on...uffffffff

[Ti-Mike]

Hi Guys,
Thursday was the day, we have mounted the Milltek non res on my R8.

The work is unbelivable, it took us about +10 hours to get the system on.

Well the sound of the Milltek non res is worth ever second we have spend to get it on.

You have to disasamble the complet rear end of the car.

The sound is infernal.

The weight difference is about 18kg between standard and Milltek non res.


Soundfile video will be posted soon.

Man, so much work...

It must been painful looking your beloved car going into pieces and back.

I would love to hear it, so if you can post a vid' or just sound clip...

:cheers:

10+ HOURS! That's the most I ever heard for an exhaust replacement! I guess that's what you get with a mid-engine car.

I loved the R8 stock sound, everything from low to high RPMs sounded great; loved it especially when downshifting at high rpms, it makes you wanna go faster and faster.. So if the Miltek is that much better ... I have no words :)

as soon as the weather is ok the video sound file will follow.

Thanks a lot for posting that.

I think it is quite helpful for others considering this option.

[Ti-Mike]

if anyone has a question about mounting the system, let me know, I guess I know now much enough to give a helping hand.

Best Mike
