Apologies, I know this has been done to death but I am just about to take an expensive leap and get a milly for my 2006 rs4. I suppose I am looking for reasurrance that they really are that good and to try and get a handle on the sound! I only use the car occasionally but like it to be an event when I do, however as the better weather approaches I would like to use it more.
Thanks

I would have to go valved, I love the ability to return to inconspicuous at the push of a button. Sometimes if I am forced to park in a rough area, I turn it off as I don't want to attract the attention of the local chavs.

Def worth it, sounds awesome!! Must be a non-resonated. It's just a difficult choice to go valved or non-valved. I went for valved as I use the car everyday and it's nice to have it quieter occassionally! If you don't use the car too much go for a non-valved as they are almost £1000 cheaper!! Go on youtube and have a listen to some of the sounds

its 100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000% worth it .... your missing out on so much of the RS 4 experience without a milly

Non res is the only way to go

Valved depends on how much you use the car, for an daily driver, i'd say go valved, but for a weekend toy, go non valved and save £1k

My only regret is that I waited so long before fitting one...

Thanks for the replies! What should I be paying for a non res with valves?

Around £1400 + VAT for the exhaust and 1-2 hours of labour = approx. £1800.

1 hr labour MAX, otherwise your being had !

I would go valved if you can afford it,
i had a non res non valved and it was to loud for me, thats in an avant.
i think its louder in the avant.
the bass boom at around 2k was to much.
the milltek has a H pipe at the cats to add torque, thats what adds the boom!
the standard system is not linked and i think sounds better just not loud enough.

I seem to get the impression that the non res miltek without the 'S' button pressed is similar to the standard with the 'S' button pressed? Does it still have the boom when the valves are closed?

Resonance drone at 1750-2000rpm is not as noticable / minimal with valves closed.
