Unvalved Milltek just fitted to my B7 RS4

Post by **oilman4345** » Fri Jan 26, 2007 2:18 pm

This morning I had a Milltek Catback system fitted to my Rs4 and although I thought the sound was great before this, it is absolutely stunning now!!. From fire up onwards it is just a totally different (much deeper and purposeful ) sound. It sounds a bit like the "unrestricted" SL 55 noise in the F1 course car!!

i've been looking at getting one but havent got round to it yet, and youve just got me back on the horse!
did you look at custom exhaust? how did the Milltek cost? who did the job?

I looked briefly at Magnatec (but not out yet) . Milltek cost circa £850 and was fitted in less than an hour by my mechanic at work.

resonated or non-resonated?

Resonated.

Hate to sound naive, but could you guys kindly explain the difference between valved/unvalved and resonated/non-resonated?

I have been thinking about getting the unvalved one too but would like to hear one first as I have concerns it is going to annoy the neighbours. How much louder is it compared to the standard exhaust?

Valved/unvalved - valved means that, like the standard exhaust, when you press the S button it opens valves at the rear that make the exhaust note louder. Unvalved is always in the louder state.

Resonated/no-resonated - ???

Dom, the unvalved will be the same noise as mine when I've pressed the S button.

Cheers Daz, not too anti social at all then.

I promise you that the unvalved Milltek system just fitted today bears NO resemblance to the standard unit with S depressed. There is a HUGE difference in volume and pitch!!!

Daz has Milltek and says valve'd sounds like unvalve'd when the S button is pressed.
