The Milltek exhausts look good.

I'd be lying if I said yes. The exhaust went on when the car was only 3 days old so I didn't have a baseline to compare it to - still running it in.
I'm skeptical of the claims by various manufacturers re performance increases. Without a tune you really can't expect more than a couple of KWs from a car that is already performance based, just on exhaust replacement alone. It does sound faster... ;)

Most of the stuff comes from the UK so take their gains with a grain of salt.

HiTech in Sydney is another option. They did mine. Full custom job, but they are planning on making a bolt on kit if they get enough demand for it. I love mine!

Finally got a vid of my custom non-res catback. Full stainless steel, 200 cell cat, made by HiTech Mufflers here in Sydney. They do top stuff, all custom made and fabricated in Bathurst NSW.
The sounds seems to be off a little bit in the vid. God knows why that is haha. I made three recordings. All off a bit. This seems to be the best one! Just close your eyes and listen lol. Not much to see anyways!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=THIRNFdRK0E |

It's a very poor video done on a $49 "KMart-GoPro" equivalent mounted 4" above the exhaust.
If I can get a better camera, I can do another vid with it mounted higher up. But this video doesn't do it any justice. In real life it sounds fantastic, and is not overly loud actually. |
