Milltek exhaust
 

Hi all. I have got a milltek centre pipe and back box but it seems to short and doesn't reach my sport downpipe? Am I being stupid here and missing something as it is about 3 or 4 inches? Its bugeye and thanks in advance

I guess the down pipe is shorter than it should be. So annoying and I was looking forward to hearing it :(

I had this before on my old Scooby the classic and new age downpipes are different lengths
A classic exhaust will fit a new age but u need the complete system

The Milltek 3'system that I had on the big had a longer downpipe than standard and was not comparable with other systems.

Well the downpipe is of a newage bug and the milltek center pipe and back box is for a newage bug, so not sure why it wont fit. Dam car. I might just sell the new exhaust from milltek if anyone is interested

How big is the gap between the downpipes and the mid section - you may need a cat bypass pipe!

Your downpipe is to short by the sounds of it .

if the centre & box are off a Twin Scroll car then it wont mate up........

Just annoying me when you ask and you try your best and then its still wrong and dosnt fit. Why dosnt everything have to be different lenghts, just make everything the same car makers for god sake

Here is a pic of the New (newage) downpipe and old centere pipe, the new centre pipie is on the floor and you can see its short of meeting?

How come the new downpipe is the same lenght as the old one downpipe? (And yet the wrong lenght?) if the old center pipe meets up to the new downpipe, Im so confused because this new short centepipe is new and should be a direct replacement. Is it just that I have had the wrong down pipe twice?

Well looking at whats fitted to the car it looks like the centre pipe has been extended as i can see a weld on it or is that something else .

This bit looks like an extension

It is a extension and not sure why that would be needed

Prob because the downpipe is to short thats why the center pipe has been modded .:ok:

Ok thats what I was thinking, just strange that it come with a short downpipe and then I replaced it with a short not knowing that I had. Thanks and I will get a full length one next month

Best bet is to buy a miltek one then you know it will fit .

Isn't a classic downpipe shorter than a newage

Yeah they want 700 odd for a milltek, I will probably get the full lenght scooby world sport cat

The downpipe I took of the car and the new cat thats on the car now is off a newage

Well that depends where you buy it from :-D

Thanks alot but I want a sport cat on the car for the emissions. I know that it might not pass a MOT because its not standard but worth a try
