   I can't fault mine in terms of performance and build quality altough I did have to enlarge the holes for the manifold studs a little.

   I think milteks are as good as you get. Ive a piper 4-1(just had repaired as split) on my 106 gti the now, but had a miltek 4-2-1 on my last gti. Prefered the miltek as does my bruv whos got on his gti the now. Miltek all the way bud,worth the extra pounds!

   heard milltek are good quality system
   
   I had a stainless steel supersprint 4-2-1 on my 106 gti and it was brilliant, good improvements, fit was perfect and will fit onto your standard system etc

    I think most people tend to go for the cheaper manifolds such as the raceland which has shown good results and some cars tbh but im happy with my Milltek.

    Not always, raceland are known to get good results so why pay more?
