i used this tip:
Amazon.com: Flowmaster (15391) 4.00" Polished Stainless Steel Dual Angle Cut Exhaust Tip: Automotive Amazon.com: Flowmaster (15391) 4.00" Polished Stainless Steel Dual Angle Cut Exhaust Tip: Automotive

it was cheaper back then.

for the delete pipe, they just had alot of leftover pipe, grabbed a piece, and welded it together. job was done in 10 minutes. this was in Flushing, Queens (NY) where there's a bunch of junkyards that do quick jobs for real cheap.

Did they use stainless steel or was it aluminized?

Have you had any issues with the 4" exhaust tips? They look BIG and I'm afraid of them hitting the bumper/ vibrating... etc

Will Helix be carrying this soon to be released, yet shall remain anonymous product? I'm in Baltimore and would want you to install. My club members (C3M) have nothing but great things to say about Helix.

Oh, and I'm looking for something throaty, and a little louder than my stock F56S, but not "loud". Do you think the new system might qualify?

Best exhaust

I have the milltek catless downpipe and milltek catback it is the best sounding exhaust I have heard yet on the F56 it has a nice deep idle all of the pops and burbles with a very aggressive note when at full throttle and the best part is there is zero drone on the highway it was money well spent. I do not have a cel I used one of the o2 extenders with a mini cat in it. I can get some video clips but they really do not do it any justice.

Please! I can send my email or post a link here.

I'm fabricating a project around the milltek exhaust. Could you tell me how long distance from the muffler to tips is? (The length of the red arrow in the pic below). Try your best to get a semi-accurate measurement. I know it's hard with it under the car. I'd really appreciate it!

Edit: I'm trying to see how much piping to use and i need to know if it's larger or smaller than 2ft 9in (awk number i know) and if larger then is it over 3ft... Sorry :/

What about the stage 2 re-tune mentioned (required) with Milteks down pipe & cat back system?


Thanks

Miltek mentioned that a "tune" is suggested but where did you see that it is specifically a stage 2 tune?

Yeah you're right for the downpipe, I thought you were talking about the exhaust. My bad.
