For the exhaust the R52 Milltek is the only one that fits it right

and you don't need any ECU tune for an intake and exhaust.

There is definately a quicker responce on the peddle not as much lag and it seems to have a little bit more spunk to it. I know i really like it. But im sure it will be better once i get the exhaust on it so i can get the air out better now that its getting huge amounts of air.
