£400 is pretty good value if the quality is good ... which as you say you have 1st hand knowledge of.

However, I'm with Grizz in that I don't like the elongated oval shape of the exhaust with the oval cut out in the bumper ... if you could get the exhaust to sit a little more flush then it would be easier on the eye. The oval tips on the Milltek cat back to sit nicely in the oval cut outs ... however to contradict myself I've always rather liked the quad tail pipe MTM exhaust ... just not the price.

If your happy with the look and the cost is certainly tempting then why not be different? If not then I'd recommend the Milltek system.

Remus/Sebring are usually pretty good, I've had good experiences with them on Golfs. However they used to be mild steel and not stainless, maybe thats changed now.
Also this particular system seems like its only the back boxes, and those tailpipes look so NAFF !
Even the MTM quad dont suit the RS6 valence, which is contoured at the edges.
The Milltek tailpipes are custom designed to fit the valence perfectly, and are made to look very much like factory fit rather than boy racer aftermarket affairs.
However they are expensive, at 120 odd quid for JUST the rear tailpipe trim... each !
