Default Milltek Exhaust Installed today and...

Very cool sounding. Much stronger, meatier growl to it. From inside the car, it sounds fantastic.

Very easy install which is one of the signs of a well designed aftermarket exhaust system in my opinion. After taking the stock system off, you can appreciate how well the OEM exhaust was designed 4 years ago. Nice product as well.

I would say it took us an hour and a half to install.

Then we sat around and drooled over a 69' Pro Street rag Camaro a friend is building.

Good day overall.

Did you use any exhaust sealant paste at the joints? If so, what type?

Default fwiw....

Tech who installed mine loves the stuff....easier slipping the joints, seals when heated. Milltek provided a tube of paste with the catbacks. I saved the leftover and used it for the DP install.

It comes with the Milltek set up but we didn't use it.

Have installed exhaust many times and didn't feel the need. The clamps do a great job of sealing and no air is leaking (we checked afterwards).

I will have my car on the hoist pretty often (friend with benefits) and so I'm not worried about that. I'll tell you that the OEM piece is an pig weight wise though. We had to hang it like 20 feet in the air and it's bloody heavy.

10-20lbs Weight savings guaranteed.
