Akrapovic Vs Milltek exhaust...

[Dallas83]

Yup, main and secondary are still there as I didn't want to have issues with the ecu freaking out, plus, there is nowhere around here for a good remap so didn't want to be driving around with warning lights on the dash...

*UPDATE*

Ok so i don't have a video up yet as i've only had the install done , but what i can say is what a bloody difference !

i removed the downpipes and added LEO's miltek downpipes which deletes a set of 3rd cats. From there we did a custom straight pipe and removed the centre res box and ran them all the way to the back box. The sound is absolute unreal !!! The bangs and pops are 100x louder than the original stock setup for the sports exhaust , but the note is just amazing.

If your looking for a cheap way to get more out of the sports exhaust system that you already have then i would definitely recommend going down the route of doing this.

I'll get some proper videos with Martay and the Gopro tomorrow...

The front pipes you fitted removed the secondary cats leaving the primary. The down pipes contain the primary cats right up beside the turbos with pre and post Lamdas. The RS only has 2 sets of cats.

Where do you live? No-one able to map it?

I take it the Akra can be fitted by any decent garage even if no previous experience?
Also, the price seems fixed at all outlets, does anyone discount? It all helps!

Thanks

Seems Akra are working hard to team up with manufacturers. If they are the same price and no warranty risk a good option.

Give us a shout. Maybe we can help you? Better to have some one with experience do the install...usually they are straight forward but we have had one in and valves were not opening correctly, however we were able to solve it.

We visited the Akra factory in Slovenia and were very surprised to see exactly how many manufacturers they dealt with. So much so we were not allowed to take pictures.

They were involved with formula 1 at some point.

Ok - who do I ask for? I'm in Edinburgh which doesn't make finding an experienced installer straightforward!

I went to look at Nardo RS6 in Perth Audi a few months ago that had an Akrapovic fitted that had that Audi Sport branding on it. Apparently it had been the Head of Audi UK's company car and it was fitted specially for him. It sounded amazing, but don't think I can justify the cost just now!

I see now that logistically its not practical. To be completely fair to you I would recommend getting in touch with Glenn at Revolution. They are Akra dealers and Im sure he will take care of you. 0191 461 9200. They are good guys there and I personally trust them.

I'd love to be able to help you out but Im sure you would not want to drive all the way to B-Ham for the install. If you do need any advise then your welcome to call me on 0121 377 8866 and ask for Del.

[Revolution]

Thanks for the recommendation Del, much appreciated.

Footsoldier - I have sent you a pm so feel free to email or pm me back if you want prices on the Akra for your car, as Del said we all visited the factory in Slovenia last year and were blown away by the levels of research and development they were doing. Very impressive indeed.

Thanks very much for your honest approach. I'll definitely remember it if I'm looking to buy wheels at some point.
Glenn and I have made contact, and my car will be sounding better soon!
