FAQs

What is a 'Cat Back' exhaust system?

A 'Cat Back' exhaust system replaces the original exhaust components starting from the catalytic converter all the way to the tailpipe. It is designed to improve exhaust flow and sound without altering the catalytic converter itself.

What is the difference between resonated and non-resonated systems?

Resonated systems include an additional silencer (resonator) to reduce sound levels, offering a quieter, more refined tone. Non-resonated systems omit or replace these resonators, resulting in a louder, more aggressive exhaust note.

What does 'Valved' mean for an exhaust system?

Valved systems incorporate an exhaust valve that can be controlled electronically (often using the vehicle's existing controls or a separate module) to alter the exhaust note. This allows for a quieter setting during normal driving and a more aggressive sound when desired.

What is the warranty on Milltek exhaust systems?

Milltek Sport offers a Limited Lifetime Warranty for exhaust systems for the original purchaser, provided proof of purchase is available. High-flow sports catalysts and downpipes have a separate guarantee of 2 years / 80,000Km.

Will this system affect my car's emissions?

This Cat Back exhaust system starts from after the catalytic converter, so it is not designed to alter your vehicle's emissions control system. However, always ensure your vehicle complies with local emissions regulations.

How difficult is the installation process?

While designed for direct fitment, installation involves working under the vehicle and handling exhaust components. Professional installation is recommended for most users to ensure safety and proper fitment.

What materials are used in the construction?

The systems are constructed from high-quality T304 Stainless Steel or Titanium, chosen for their durability, corrosion resistance, and acoustic properties.

Troubleshooting

Exhaust leak detected after installation.

Check all clamps and connections for tightness. Ensure all gaskets are properly seated and not damaged. Re-tighten connections as needed, or consult a professional if the leak persists.

Unwanted rattling or vibration sounds.

Verify that the exhaust system is not in contact with the vehicle's undercarriage or suspension components. Ensure all mounting hangers are securely in place and not damaged.

Exhaust drone at certain RPMs.

If you experience drone, consider if a resonated version or a system with additional silencing components would be more suitable. Some drone may be inherent to performance exhaust systems and can vary based on driving conditions.

Reduced performance or power.

Ensure the installation was completed correctly and there are no exhaust leaks. Check for any obstructions in the exhaust path. Verify that the system is the correct specification for your vehicle.
