Re: One tip pumping hot, other cold (Milltek)
because its the most direct pipe for the gases to naturally exit the exhaust.
Really really dont worry bout it at all.

Re: One tip pumping hot, other cold (Milltek)
So do millteks normally do this :S? It sounds awesome (straight through centre section
)
I just want to know if there is a problem, dan r says its okay but id doesnt add up because its the side with the bend that is giving out the warmer air and gases

Re: One tip pumping hot, other cold (Milltek)
The standard one has two seperate back boxes. where as most aftermarkets are just the single back box with extra pipes.
Are you sure us 2 arent unlucky
So why does the standard exhaust not do this? pretty interested now

Re: One tip pumping hot, other cold (Milltek)
The milltek has 2 different back boxes
Is the most pressure coming from the right side?

Re: One tip pumping hot, other cold (Milltek)
I was referring to the previous posts about one tip being hot and one being cold basically stating I wasn't sure if Yozza's do it or not if that makes any sense.
Has anyone contacted Milltek about this to see what they have to say?

Re: One tip pumping hot, other cold (Milltek)
Not yet, id like to see what other milltek owners are saying because im not sure if they're having the same problem coming from the same side.
Maybe a title change to FAO all Milltek owners may help

In cold weather you only get steam out of one pipe,some youngen asked if my exhaust was a pretend one in december pmsl,but yes they all do it
Nope, my standard one didnt either but then i caught my leg on the milltek and burnt myself :dapprove:

Just checked mine mate and the drivers side pipe is a lot hotter than the other, I'm getting quite irratic pressure from the pipes aswell but mine idles quite lumpy, I know people say the 1*2's have quite a lumpy idle but I didn't expect it 2 be that bad tbh
I'll be speaking to Charlie at Milltek in the next day or 2 about something else so I'll mention this when I speak to him and see what he says about it

checked earlier and the heat is coming from the o/s pipe mate
Im also getting erratic pressure, this is down to the lumpy idle though... all that power in the car the size of a slipper :rasp:
Seem like the norm then.
I still cant understand 'why' though lol hopefully callum001 can get the answer for us

ok wee update gents, just spoke to Charlie at Milltek and i've sent him a link to this thread. He's going to have a look into it as he wasnt aware of this before
i just remapped my motor yesterday (rs tuner) and thats sorted out the lumpy idle quite a bit which in turn has calmed down the erratic back pressure (still not a smooth pressure but i dont think thats much of an issue if at all ?)
the temperature difference hasnt changed though so still really hot on the o/s and warm/cool on the n/s

my milltek seems to be ok, I remember having looked at it in some cold day and the vapors came on both pipes.. didn't touch them to see which was hotter though..
i'm pleased with the sound also and no cracked welds so far

p.s:the cat and center section are still on the car

Well I've been out for a good drive today and just checked the heat on the pipes, and they both burnt my hand lol
So in answer, they were both hot
Hope this helps.
Yeah iirc both my tips get hot to touch but we mean the exhaust fumes/vapors
