"Don't waste your time with the valved Milltek. I have the downpipes, high flow cats, and full, non-res Milltek catback and I chose the valved version. It is very loud, the closed position MAYBE reduces the sound by 1%. You pay about $1000 for that 1%. The difference is barely noticeable. If I had to do it again, I would have NOT gotten the valved version. It does sound incredible though. Some people say "American V8", but there is no way to capture the sound on video. It does not sound anything like a Corvette, it sounds wild!"
Just passing on info that might help your decision...

What are the sound diffrences in the Res and non res versions, which exhaust has less drone. I know that the non-valved system weighs less than the valved system. Did you do the entire exhaust all at one time? and what are the diffrence in numbers BHP and TQ???
I will get picts up latter today the car is in the shop getting tint.
