I think it depends if you've had the latest dme update which seems to make opf sensors much more sensitive.

I've got milltek system with opf delete and no CEL.

As i replaced from bottom of DPs to tailpipe I could have not cut the OE system but its too large and heavy in one peice to get home, even in a van. It's a 2 man lift.

So we cut OE system after OPF where milltek show to cut it. Then i could replace OPF if i ever needed to while keeping OPF back system in place.

Would still love to hear some low-res video. Also, would you mind taking a few more pics of the exhaust? Those tips look like they flow nicely.

I wonder as mentioned if it's due to OPF in EU cars causing alignment issues?

Wasted hours of my life downloading numerous free video editing packages only to find I need a degree in film making to operate it.

Try Camtasia. It's super easy and explains itself more or less.

Nice one dude.

Burnt tips will look amazing.

The Miltek race system on a EU spec car is not overly loud. I noticed the increased volume driving around town.

I've had compliments on how good the car sounds now.

In my option, the car should have sounded like this from factory

Milltek with carbon tips. I dont like how it sounds in the video. Sounds much deeper in real life with no rasp. Not to loud but sounds good.

I'm seriously thinking about the Milltek, but I want to replace the damn OPFs so I'm considering the EU approved version with GPF/OPF bypass, maybe just a bit louder than your race version with mid-kats.

I purchased from SCC performance I ordered Friday and it was here Monday from UK to FL absolutely amazing. It sounds incredible the mods were a few cuts and it needed to be welded but nothing too crazy, took about 2 hours and costed $190. I think you could find someone who works faster to do it in say 1 hour cause the guy I had do it was a one man team and could tell he could use a wingman. Now onto the looks performance and sound! Firstly it looks fantastic, the exhaust fits as it should have when I first purchased my car, no more huge tank hanging down. The Burnt Titanium tips look great the Milltek logo on the top is a great touch. Performance, the exhaust was at least 10 pounds less we had a ghetto scale rig but we know that it lost at least 10lb. Idk if it's placebo but the airflow made the car feel oddly quicker. The sound is possibly the best exhaust I've heard from just a catback. I'm also incredibly impressed on how this exhaust can be so quiet with flaps closed and efficient mode it's legit stealth and I don't have to worry about driving through my neighborhood late at night. It can be quite loud but never loud enough to drone. Attached are some images if you guys need anything else let me know.

Any way via the idrive to see what current DME is on the car?
Mine had the ris done a few weeks ago so I assume any updates were done then.

Still haven’t got my Milltek, but don’t want any issues arising when I do get it!

Call the dealers to ask if any software updates were done. Other than that you need diagnostic software really.

Someone on here said you can save you driver profile to USB then open that file in a text editor on a PC and that will have software versions visible, not tried it though.
