As my re-map is now out of the way, next thing on the list is a stainless exhaust. Ive heard so many stories about whats good, and whats not good, but im after a discreet system, which will have noticeable power gains, and will not be loud!! Need it to be as quiet as possible, as its a daily. Ive got my MK2 for loudness!!! So any advice as to what to go for? Also, im not looking to change my rear valance for a V5 one, as i dont want any tailpipes sticking out the rear bumper!! Cheers!!!
go for a mitek system mate gettin one for mine as i dont want mine to be seen ether. they do a descrete tdi style back box and think the system is about 420 seems alot but they are verry good quality.
Was thinking about a Milkek, but ive heard they are quite boomy. They do look good though, plus i definately want the discreet look. Any other companys who sell the standard look pipes?
Look like Scorpion do discreet tailpipes. But i had a Scorpion system on my MK2 and that was quite loud!!!
jetex road system, check my thread, uber quiet which ****es me off so much i'm gonna cut out the middle box, and mine's the louder version, and I reckon i've felt gains with it on...
If you want quiet then don't go for milltek - ever. Hahaha. I've had Milltek on an old mk2 and now on the mk3. Sounds f*ckin brilliant - but its loud as hell. Dennis10 has a jetex on his mk3, and its not all that much quieter than my milltek exhaust tbh - I don't know why people think they are quiet?
supersprint = quiet. got one on my mk3. sounds louder than OE but my god it does a good 4cyl shout at full chat gonna search youtube for mk4 jetex stuff

i have a jetex with a home made decat. sounds great on full chat, no boom on motorway or when just commuting about. My mate says it sounds like its sucking up the tarmac, whatever that means
Lets get this thread going again. Its been on my mind lately and i want to get one sorted. So has anyone had any experience with these discreet tailpipes? Its only scorpion and milltek who do them, so will go with one of them. Most likely Milltek. Been thinking about the noise side of things and i wouldn't mind a little exhaust note
Can't see the point of spending 300-400 and not hearing what you bought. Exhaust note is needed but not too much
Jetex on my Ibiza Cupra was excellent. Nice a quite, whilst knowing it was there.. never rattled/broke/failed, inthe two years before the car was written off. It even looked mint with the car on its roof.
My brother had a miltek on his mk4, and tbh he reckoned it really was'nt worth the money. But thats his opinion, and tbh i agree with him. He bought an R32 later and that already had a miltek on it and it suited the 6 cyl engine much better than his previous 4 cyl engined golf
Just buy a section of 56mm pipe and two joining sleeves and chop out the middle box, with a turbo, a cat and a backbox silencing your engine i guarantee it still wont be loud!
