Default Focus ST3 exhaust Upgrade

Hi

Thinking of upgrading my exhaust on the ST. I have seen this and wonder if others have fitted it and wonder if sounds ok? Dont want it sounding too loud etc.

Anyone else done theres and which one they would recomend?

Cheers J

I've got a milltek resonated system on mine, it is a really well made bit of kit, welds are superb. It isn't any louder than standard apart from when you have your foot on the floorboards when it makes a nice rumble. Other than that it is totally quiet.

I got it off the wife for xmas, pretty sure she got it from SCC.

They're 4" slashed rolled inwards, just like the standard pipes but a bit bigger!

i carnt talk about the st as i have mk2 1.6 but i have miltek on mine
i like it, was a little to quite for me but changed bumper to st and i had to take the tail pipe off and a really like how it sounds now hopefully it will keep the same tone when i get the 4" tail pipes made

although its anoying me at the moment as its making the heat shield rattle

also for you as far as i no it can be bought in resonated and non resonated
