Also said call customer care center and talk with them.

 

Thanks Yulong. I really appreciate your looking into it. I will mention this to my sales agent once my truck arrives (it landed in Halifax on the 8th). I will most likely end up having to call customer care.

 

I'm in the same situation, my truck is scheduled to arrive first week of April and my dealer confirmed (after I found out on this forum) that there only 5 % chance that the calipers will be blue...
They will know for sure next week when they get the invoice..
Do I need to get the car first before reaching out to customer care?

 

My Milltek system is on. You might expecting some pictures and videos but unfortunately i have nothing for you yet

but some quick feedback and some info for those that don’t like reading pages of a thread

I am located in the US non opf/ppf car. Ordered a resonated center box and straight pipes. Milltek is modular depending what you like. There is no videos of a US car with the system. I am probably the first with one in the states

OPF/PPF are filters to reduce noise and carbon particles. it reduces sound dramatically. So with prior experiencing with a Milltek on my p400 Defender it was too loud without the resonator. So decided to purchase both resonator and the straight pipes and decide which way to go.

Resonator was installed as the first option and a good decision. It’s the perfect amount of volume and a much cleaner sound compared to the Urban videos. Straight pipes would be way too much with no OPF

i only have 30 miles since install and once i get someone to help do some videos i will post them

One interesting thing i found out was that in comfort mode it kept the valves open. Of course Dynamic also. Only way to get the valves closed was to put in ECO mode. I have never driven in Eco till today as i was trying to figure out how to shut them. but when i turn the car off and turn it back on in comfort they are closed. I wonder if they do open and close while driving or once open they stay open

Seems really odd to me but i never checked my stock exhaust to see if that’s just how it is

if anybody has a minute could they verify if the valve is closed in comfort mode on the stock system


More feedback as i put more miles on it

 

Can’t wait to see the pics and video!

Will try and check my stock exhaust out in comfort mode in a few hours.

 

realized i couldn’t post a video directly to the forums.

quick cold start and change to dynamic. best heard with speaker or headphones

tried to do some more videos but streets pretty busy on Sunday morning. Neighbors looking at me strange.

more to come.

Nice! That sounds great! Any drone other annoyances while driving?

 

drone is very subjective. I have had an aftermarket exhaust on pretty much every car i have ever had. I consider drone a constant tone that echos through the car. Usually at cruising speeds and consistent.

so thankfully there is none of that. I do get that tone at very low rpm and speeds from 1.5-2k rpm but it goes away right away. I would say that’s the only annoyance. Not considered drone for me

as i put more miles on the exhaust i am enjoying more and more. With normal easy driving the exhaust is tame enough but slight increased volume and change of tone where you can hear the difference. When on the pedal and valves open it sounds amazing.

here are some pics of the exhaust. I had plans of painting the muffler etc black and even had the paint ready but i was so anxious to get it installed i couldn’t get to it. prob still plan to paint if it’s a possibility with painting it on the car.

 

Just my opinion, but I wouldn't paint it. It looks "stock enough" in the silver and the black paint would draw attention to it in my view.

 

it’s not terrible from the rear view but from the side profile and tips that silver section bothers me. Urban painted their and the muffler just blends in with the bumper.

it sounds like a decent amount of work and high probability that i might mess up and overspray on something. And if i don’t do it soon i am going to have to clean the exhaust very well.

likely i probably won’t do it.
