Product Description
There are a few options with the cat back system you can have resonated or non resonated, non resonated is louder and will not suite everyone. There are several tip options, you can have GT100 round tips in various colours or oval tips in various colours. The final option is to have the exhaust valves working or not. This means the exhaust gets louder when in race mode. This is like the factory setup. Most people opt to keep it like the factory but the option to remove the valves exists and removes some of the cost.
One of the most highly-anticipated models in Volkswagen’s history, the new Mk7 Golf R, has been a huge global success for the firm – and it’s still awaiting release into the US market (due Spring 2015).
Built on the latest generation VAG chassis, dubbed MQB, and pairing the superbly flexible and powerful 300PS 2.0 TSI engine with 4Motion all-wheel-drive technology, the new Golf R offers one of the most sought-after tuning platforms in the VW family line-up and Milltek Sport has spent an unprecedented amount of time creating a truly impressive and comprehensive range of performance exhaust options for the R and all its various VAG sister vehicles.
The system is based around 3-inch (76mm) stainless steel pipe diameter. Milltek’s Technicians used advanced gas-flow analysis and extensive road/dyno testing to show this bore size offered the optimal blend of increased power with a perfectly-judged rich sound quality.
Milltek Sport uses only the finest Type-304 aircraft-grade stainless steel in the construction of all of its systems, which carry a lifetime guarantee for the original owner.
Milltek Sport developed a single system cat-back architecture for the range-topping Golf which is available with either a centre silencer (referred to as Resonated) or a centre silencer delete pipe (Non-Resonated).
The Resonated option was developed specifically to meet EC Type Approval (sometimes referred to as TÜV certification or E-Mark) which is a legal requirement for sale into many European and a small number of Asian countries. EC Type-Approval restricts the overall volume an aftermarket exhaust can produce so Milltek’s engineers have used their acoustic expertise to produce a system that meets those restrictions but have focused their attention on the clarity, quality and tone their system produces. The EC system still offers the same performance gains and fun-factor as the non-EC approved system but is delivered with the all-important paperwork to stay on the right side of legislation.
