    Yea - can't wait. Will take pics and put a full write up / review once I get everything else ready for MOTD (which at this point is a little more important). :D

    Just remember it will sound louder than expected when you first put it on since the pipe is clean inside without any carbon buildup. It will tone down and get a deeper sound after a couple hundred miles.

    Supersprint has specific design for gp2 that clears diffuser. Both in 60mm and oversized 65mm. I think quality wise you cant beat supersprint. Also those guys dont produce anything if its not gonna benefit the car.

    Planning get a full system at the end of september

    On the Milltek site, when ordering they have you specifiy resonated versus non-resonated. I'm an old guy looking for a more mellow tone. I'm guessing non-resonated is closer to stock than resonated. I see Borla has a "Touring" set that has a milder sound. Any thoughts or suggestions.

    My '06 R53 got a resonated Milltek when I first bought the car new. I LOVED the burble of the MIlltek during track days as well as on the highways and at the Tail of the Dragon...all until last winter and a snowstorm that damaged the resonator so much that I had to have it cut off. The shop that did it did not have a resonator so I have had to drive without one. Honestly, I can't hear much difference, other than the exhaust being somewhat noisier but at least it doesn't backfire. On the plus side, the burble is still there and that's enough for me [I'm 73].

    By the way, WELCOME TO M/A!

    The resonated exhaust is closer to stock. The non-res version is louder and a bit raspier.

    Exactly what Scott said above. I would go with resonated.

    I was happy with the resonated until it went out. Now, I'm stuck with non-resonated..a tad buzzy, but doable since I still have that "burble".

    You know you can buy just the resonated section by itself right ?
