MK7.5 Golf R Milltek Downpipe vs Stock

I didn't think I was going to put a downpipe on this car... but welcome to my life! Here are some before and after starts and runs with the stock downpipe and the new Milltek with hi flow cat.

[@Wayzor_]

Racingline's downpipe is made by Milltek, and a couple hundred cheaper. FYI.

Hey CPO, it's your favorite former IT Project Manager from that place we used to work. I'm just minding my business watching Golf R videos when I see a familiar face. My mk7.5 R is still stock, but I'm getting the modding itch.

Soundcheck at 5:20

[@allensimpson8533]

If you want a little better Intake noise and performance cut open the blocked part in the grill.

[@jstoli996c4s]

Sounds a bit louder, but not overbearing. Better throttle response, less lag below 3,000rpm?

[@iiChromEo]

Such amazing content! I’m in the DMV with a 19 R as well. I’ve been looking into getting either this downpipe or a IE one. Do you have any plans for the rest of the exhaust? Currently I have a resonator delete which sounds great with the valves coded open, however I am hesitant about getting a downpipe with my res delete since I’m not too fond of the cold start sound with that specific set up. Any plans going down that route or catback options?

[@vipermanx99]

Hi could you please provide the milltek downpipe part no? Is it SSXVW349 ?

[@brennanmccormick2630]

So the milltek downpipe with the HJS downpipe doesn't throw off cel, I get. But there's an option with the race high flow car which I hear is almost identical? What's the difference exactly, does the race cat bring up cel or is it just louder? Thanks😀

[@jeroenverheggen3530]

They have two types with HJS cat. For the golf 7R. Which one do you have? Is it the one with ec quality mark? ( when it has the ec mark it’s allowed for street use in Europe)

[@EVERYTHINGcpo]

I'm pretty sure mine was without.

[@kiliBrtoiP]

what is the part number for DP. Milltek has two parts with HJS core. one is race and other is ECE EURO6 core.

[@krieg3825]

Its unusual the Milltek sportscat downpipe fails Irish NCT emmisons test. Skorpion Sportscat Downpipe passes however.

[@ericbyun9846]

I live in maryland as well. Will a catted downpipe pass maryland emissions? I am consider this exact setup but am worried about having to swap it every 2 years to pass inspection.

[@rudydaberry122]

Dang just from the downpipe install it changes sound that much?

[@lifenz1]

Nice vid man, Time for catless miltek Dp

[@shc9140]

3" Cast Large Bore Downpipe And Hi-Flow Sports Cat for stock catback？

[@supositorio]

Is the exhaust smell considerably worse after downpipe installation?

[@EVERYTHINGcpo]

I didn’t notice any additional exhaust smell after this down pipe install

[@msquayle]

It has a cat. It’s typically the catless ones that smell like shit.

[@johnrodrigues4246]

Could i get a part # for that exact downpipe

[@ItamiSenpai]

Would this downpipe work with a Remus cat back exhaust?

[@EVERYTHINGcpo]

I’m sure it would. They offer two versions - one for stock cat-back, and one for aftermarket cat-bat.

[@N1Z3L]

is the new vid up already?

[@BT-ls5zk]

Do you ever find the power with the JB4 to be inconsistent? Meaning sometimes the car feels really strong then other times it feels a bit slower?

[@chrisjay7736]

No you either have some settings wrong so you run into a safety or high IAT so it is dumping fuel and cutting timing advance. Log to see whats up but make sure all setting are correct.

[@dorkultra]

i found that it took a day or 2 for it to fully apply a map change, even after going WOT a few times it seemed to take a day to take effect. also weather affects things drastically, boost season is the best

[@Veshon]

That's heat soak. You need an intercooler to prevent it

[@tylerrobert9925]

I did in my 18 s4 it was smoother without it

[@Syndebukken92]

Do you get the "DSG fart" sound with milltek downpipe?

[@chickenricesteak541]

You are talking about the pop and crackle. I heard that needs a tune.

[@muddystick]

The DSG fart is the result of ignition being cut but fuelling continuing, this is done to make getting on power after a shift quicker. So DSG farts will still be there after changing exhaust.

[@sking6344]

im wondering the same thinng lmk

[@thecollieman8306]

I can do 0-60 in 4.15 with an APR stage 1 high torque, worn winter tires, and 5,000-6,000 ft elevation 🤷‍♂️

[@Frisky_Panda]

Really. No videos outside the car? Lol
