how is it 'alot better'
how can u justify this exactly?

i dont believe u can tbh
especially when blueflame are actually a custom exhaust manufacturer compared to milltek who spend alot on R&D on all of their applications

yeah I would say that ive heard many good things about blueflame but ive also heard some bad things too, miltek actually test the power outputs of their cars and work their exhausts around this to improve upon them.

Im guessing you've seen blueflame advertising the systems on ebay, have you factored into the price the cost of fitting as turbo back wont be cheap, i'd say your looking at around £100 on top

Miltek system on mine expired in 18months. blew the guts out of the rear box.
Jetex system which replaced it was fine 2 years after owning it.

Now running BF and no issues what so ever.

Of the 3 Miltek rate lowest of my own preference and personal experience.
They all fitted well tho.

you could do a lot worse and go "P*werfl*w"

and im sure that blue flame make oem zorsts for tvr which can't be bad

yea, but its kinda funny when TVR as a car has such a bad reliability rep tho... does'nt actually count for much. (apart from the exhaust is probably the most reliable thing on there LOL )

with TVR realibility records? lol :)

im more than happy with my miltek, Bill you were running IHI though at the time and may of just been unlucky with the build quality of one exhaust?

Do a serach and you'll find plenty of bad info about blueflame too though, one particular leon cupra R owner, cant remember his name but his car was yellow if that helps actually paid £700-800 for another exhaust as he was so shocked at their customer service/quality of their product

is there anyone whos car is slammed on coilovers with a blueflame system? bcos this is the only problem with the milltek..stock ride height and there should be no problem at all

cost reflects the badge, with bill the exception iv never heard a bad comment about the quality of milltek, oh...except that it isnt loud enough.....these ppl should have bought a peco too begin with :whistle:

and as for pipe diameter...bigger isnt always better, not that a 0.25mm difference could really be noticed

aint knocking blueflame, but at the end of the day they are in the same league as powerflow an longlife

end of the day the price is decent
