The really interesting news is that our chosen car is a VW Golf, a manufacturer unseen in the BTCC arena for over 20 years."We are really proud to be bringing the Volkswagen name back into top-line touring cars. We have been working on a plan to move up to the BTCC arena after winning the Dunlop Sportmaxx Cup in 2009 and a BTCC VW Golf is a perfect fit," said AmD's Shaun Hollamby. "The VW Golf is one of the UK's most popular cars and it would be great to see hordes of VW Golf owners cheering us on throughout the year!"Further team sponsors will be announced over the coming months.Hollamby will be the main driver and Simon Shaw, who won the Dunlop Sportmaxx title for AmD, is trying to raise the necessary budget to campaign the car at selected rounds of the championship.The car is based on a MK5 VW Golf shell with a 2.0 16V normally aspirated power unit with a competitive 285bhp. Sadev sequential gearbox, KW competition suspension, Milltek exhaust, HJS Sports catalytic converter and Alcon brake and clutch parts complete the performance package."Starting with a new car package, we expect 2010 to be a gradual development season but I am confident I can get a few competitive results. Winning races is not a realistic target at this stage but, having won races in every series in which I have competed, I would like to think I can hold my own at this level," said Hollamby.The AmD BTCC Golf will be on display at the Autosport and Pistonheads Show next weekend in Birmingham.The first round of the 2010 Dunlop BTCC takes place at Thruxton, Hants in April. > read more http://www.millteksport.com/news.read.cfm?articleid=118 info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Tue, 12 Jan 2010 20:00:00 GMT News Ford's latest landmark performance model, the new Focus RS 2.5T, has not escaped the attention of Europe's top tuning firms and in their search for creating the ultimate tuning packages there was only one choice for the exhaust system – Milltek Sport.Milltek has brought together all of it's 25+ years development experience and technical knowledge to produce the ultimate exhaust system for the new Ford Focus RS.Milltek offers the exhaust in two forms, a cat-back system and a full turbo-back system. The cat-back system consists of a centre section, rear silencer assembly and dual DTM-tailpipes, and the turbo-back system adds a large-bore downpipe with adjustable bracket, and a hi-flow sports catalyst.The cat-back system can be fitted to a car in standard tune (without an ECU remap) but if you fit the full turbo-back system you will require an ECU remap to ensure a smooth and trouble-free integration with the engine management system. We also recommend that, if you have the ECU remapped, that you fit the full-turbo system to get the best out of both the exhaust and the remap.The 3-inch diameter pipework was chosen after extensive testing revealed that it offered the best balance between improved gas flow and reduced backpressure while maintaining low to mid-range torque, as well as enriching the five-cylinder engine sound without producing excessive noise or droning at cruising speeds. Do not however, assume it's a subtle sound; it endows the RS with spine-tingling tone under full acceleration, perfectly complimenting the character of the car.Completing the transformation of the exhaust system are a pair of purposeful-looking 4.5-inch (115mm) DTM-style tailpipes which look almost OEM in appearance but hint at the new levels of performance on offer. > read more http://www.millteksport.com/news.read.cfm?articleid=117 info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Tue, 24 Nov 2009 20:00:00 GMT News At Milltek, we believe one of the most fundamental ingredients required for a successful business is a passion and enjoyment for the work that you do - which is why everyone here is mad about cars.

The car has been fast and reliable all season. I would like to thank AmD, Mardi Gras, Milltek, Dunlop, KW Suspension and EBC for making the whole season possible", said a jubilant Shaw.Ryan Bensley, making his debut in AmD's Class B SEAT Leon FR, further hammered home the teams dominance by taking 2 wins and a 2nd place at his local track."I would like to thank Dunlop and AmD for giving me this opportunity and am now extra keen to find the budget to step up to this championship in 2010", said an ecstatic Bensley."I couldn't be more pleased with how the season has gone. The key to this championship is reliability, as well as speed. We have finished 36 out of 36 races which is a great credit to Mardi Gras Motorsport and AmD", said AmD boss Shaun Hollamby. > read more http://www.millteksport.com/news.read.cfm?articleid=115 info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Wed, 30 Sep 2009 20:00:00 GMT News Milltek Sport have chosen to sponsor Tony Gilham for the remaining races in this season's Porsche Carrera Cup Great Britain.

The CSL Cup is a series developed purely for this model so that owners can race these cars in a competitive, cost effective series designed around maximising enjoyment, track time and competition.Two classes are available; 'Standard' and 'Modified'. Equalisation measures will be in place to ensure the M3 is on equal footing with the CSL models. The standard class is designed to be a cost effective entry to racing the E46 M3/CSL, items such as suspension, wheels and brakes are control items so each car is identical thus maximising the input of the driver. The modified class allows far greater changes to the models. Again, equalisation between the CSL and the M3 will ensure a level playing field. All the classes will run on a control tyre, which is yet to be decided upon.After much negotiation the CSL Cup has now been confirmed as being a core series on the Dunlop Great and British Racing Festivals. Accepted as being one of the highest levels of national motorsport in the UK the Dunlop Great and British racing festivals offer the best possible racing in the UK, Radicals, Mini Championship, SportMaxx all based on full themed race weekends with each Sunday offering complete tin top racing. Dunlop's extensive marketing and support provides a variety of benefits from the Dunlop Cafe (free refreshments for team members and supporters) to the complete tyre support package as offered to the BTCC. It is the first time a new series has been granted access to such a prestigious series.Milltek Sport has provided racing exhaust systems, featuring FIA-approved Motorsport Catalysts for several of the cars in on the grid. These systems are based on the system we provide as an upgrade for standard road-going cars and are a living testament to the extreme testing and rigorous development programme that all Milltek exhausts must go through before being released for general sale.For more information please visit the CSL Cup website. > read more http://www.millteksport.com/news.read.cfm?articleid=110 info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Wed, 15 Apr 2009 20:00:00 GMT News Racing driver and owner of AmD Technik Essex - one of Milltek's top UK distributors - Shaun Hollamby drove the Milltek Audi R8 with extreme precision to win the Pro Street class of the Autovisie TimeAttack series in Assen, Holland last weekend.The 455bhp Audi R8 was not only almost certainly the best sounding car on track it was also one of the most photographed.Shaun Hollamby, along with Phil Millington of Milltek Sport, drove through the night to attend the event and are extremely pleased with the result.We would like to give a big thank you to our Dutch distributor Xtreme Tuning for all their help and support and, of course Shaun Hollamby for his time and efforts throughout the weekend. > read more http://www.millteksport.com/news.read.cfm?articleid=109 info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Fri, 03 Apr 2009 20:00:00 GMT News With 23 firm registrations already with five weeks to go before the start of the Volkswagen Racing Cup season, the Hankook-backed championship is all set for a recession-busting 2009.Six of last season's race winners are to return for another tilt at the title and there are several new drivers also, as well as an impressive diversity of models spearheaded by the svelte new Scirocco.The more than healthy state of championship entries delights Melissa Wright, director of championship promoter RacingLine: "I remained confident throughout the winter that the championship's unique blend of cost-effectiveness and competitiveness would help it prevail, and it is a great boost to have 23 confirmations with more than a month to go. Excitingly, there are at least a further six drivers I know of who are firming up their plans and who hope to be at Oulton Park on Easter Monday."The latest drivers to confirm their plans include Adrian Dziurzynski, who won 2008's final race and who has built a new car for '09, and James Walker, son of truck racing legend Richard.Dziurzynski, 25, is to forsake the venerable Mk II Golf GTI which he has campaigned for four seasons and will instead race a freshly built Mk IV Golf. He tested the new car for the first time on Saturday, at Castle Combe: "It's a phenomenal car. the quickest I have ever driven. The engine is exactly as in my old car, a 16-valve 2-litre, but the handling with the new shell is something else again. I'm a little heart-torn to be leaving the Mk II behind but I'm so pleased with the new one that it's making up for it!"Twenty-two-year-old Walker will return at the wheel of the Slidesports-prepared Golf with which he claimed championship sixth, and one race victory, in 2008. The Golf was converted from diesel power to petrol at the end of the season, helping James net a third-place finish at Donington Park, and he believes that further developments should help him to be a podium regular."I'm really looking forward to coming back," said Walker. "It's been a struggle because sponsorship has been hard to find, but we've dug deep to return because it's such an enjoyable championship. We did well with the petrol engine at Donington and since then we've made a lot of upgrades, which should make a big difference. The problem is the level of competitiveness is so high: there are a lot of good cars and some handy drivers."The other race winners returning are 2006 champion Paul Taylor with his Golf R32, Golf GTI pilots Steve Wood and Jamie Perry, and Mike Kurton, who will handle one of the exciting RacingLine-built Scirocco GTs.The other Scirocco will be in the hands of Liam Griffin, who made his racing debut in the Volkswagen Racing Cup in 2008. The Addison Lee Motorsport team will field Liam's old Golf GTI for his elder brother, Kieran Griffin.The Golf GTI will be numerically the most popular car on the grid: others planning to race the Wolfsburg favourite include old hand Michael McInerney, ex-Clio racer Peter Felix and championship newcomers Anna Walewska, Tim Snaylam and Aaron Mason.Five Beetles are expected on the grid at Oulton: RSIs for Darren Blumson, Martyn Culley, Nick Dunn and 2008 podium regular Steve Chaplin, plus a Beetle TDI for Andrew Smith.The irrepressible Peter Wyhinny will be back with the spectator-pleasing Caddy TDI and further diversity is added by the return of Doug Ross's Polo, the Vento VR6 of Barrie Culley, Tony Harberman's Golf VR6 and Steve Walker's Mk IV Golf.Milltek Sport have been active sponsors of the Volkswagen Racing Cup since 2004 and many of the teams use Milltek exhausts on their racing cars. > read more http://www.millteksport.com/news.read.cfm?articleid=108 info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Mon, 09 Mar 2009 20:00:00 GMT News For 2009 the Competitors and Officials Yearbook; the ‘Bluebook’ from the MSA states:-Exhaust catalytic converters must be fitted to all petrol engined production based saloon, touring and sports cars, including specialist production and kit cars manufactured after 31/12/99. They may be specified for certain other formulae. Competitors are reminded of their obligation to maintain such equipment on a vehicle used on the highway where government legislation requires it.Milltek has extensive experience in providing catalyst and exhaust solutions and can help your team to comply with the rules and ensure that your race car maintains the maximum performance possible. It's worth noting that testing by TÜV Bayern, in addition to other testing, have shown that HJS high performance catalytic converters do not produce any loss of engine performance (measurements according to DIN 70020) and keep within the exhaust gas regulations.Milltek Motorsport uses only the finest quality FIA-Approved HJS high-performance catalysts. This new generation of catalysts are characterized by 30% less weight in relation to catalysts built using existing materials and techniques. Back pressure has been reduced by a further 10%, and the exhaust gas pollution reduction is optimised. The thickness of the foil (0,11mm) remains unchanged but is now of a PE Foil design which uses perforations to reduce weight and increase flow. Although the products may be new, they have been extensively tested and shown to offer the same high-levels of durability and reliability of existing products.Milltek Sport has been active sponsors of the Volkswagen Racing Cup since 2004 and has been a UK Business Partner for HJS Motorsport since 2003. Motorsport catalysts are all 100 cpsi rated with special SM winding for maximum durability and have an outstanding heat rating of 1150 degrees C. These catalysts have been tested to produce up to 28% less backpressure than competitors products.To view the complete range of racing catalysts, find out more information about the new regulations, see the solutions Milltek Sport can offer your team or, to buy online, visit our new Motorsport Cats website: www.motorsportcats.com or alternatively call us on 01332 227280. > read more http://www.millteksport.com/news.read.cfm?articleid=107 info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Mon, 02 Mar 2009 20:00:00 GMT News Milltek Sport had a great response to their exhibition at this year's Autosport International show at Birmingham's NEC.

Milltek have used slightly larger 100mm tips than the standard exhaust to further highlight this feature but also to work in harmony with the cars’ overall design.As with all Milltek exhausts, the objective has been to endow the car with a more purposeful sound but also to release extra power and better response by refining the journey the exhaust gasses take from the engine to tailpipe. > read more http://www.millteksport.com/product.news.read.cfm?articleid=53 info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Thu, 06 Aug 2009 20:00:00 GMT Product News Mountune, in conjunction with Milltek Sport have produced a performance upgrade package for 1.6-litre versions of the new-look Fiesta Zetec-S and Titanium models consists of a high-flow air induction system, a Milltek Sport high performance exhaust including high-flow catalyst and tubular manifold, and re-calibration of Ford’s 1.6-litre Duratec Ti-VCT engine.The result takes the target power output to 140PS at 6,750rpm and 170NM of torque at 4,250rpm, compared to 120PS and 152NM for the standard engine.

The full turbo-back system adds a large-bore downpipe (with adjustable bracket) and a hi-flow sports catalyst for maximum power and response gains while maintaining emissions within legal limits. > read more http://www.millteksport.com/product.news.read.cfm?articleid=51 info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Mon, 20 Jul 2009 20:00:00 GMT Product News Milltek Sport are once again at the very forefront of new product development, this time it's with the brand new KTM X-Bow.While the car has been much praised for the quality of engineering and stunning ability to cover ground very quickly, some testers and owners alike have criticised it for its lack of aural drama from the Audi-derived 2.0T FSi engine. This is an engine that Milltek know very well from the Audi S3 and TT-S. Both cars were part of the Milltek long-term development fleet and the quality of the exhaust systems they released really shines through.The X-Bow entered the Milltek workshop a number of weeks ago and development began immediately on a new exhaust system that would give it the sound and performance to match it's amazing visual appeal.The new exhaust system will be first shown at the GTi International show at Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground near Leicester this coming weekend (27th and 28th June). The car will be entering the Sprint race and even if you can't make the show to see it in action, we'll post videos and photos of the event here early next week... > read more http://www.millteksport.com/product.news.read.cfm?articleid=50 info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Fri, 26 Jun 2009 20:00:00 GMT Product News Our previous-generation M3 products have proven to be extremely popular because of a unique combination of impressive power gains, aggressive but subtle styling, engineering perfection, and powerful but unobtrusive sound quality.Once again, Milltek have shown a true understanding of the latest generation M3 models and has already seen an impressive number of E92 Coupe owners choosing to upgrade to its stainless steel cat-back system.Following on from this success, Milltek have released an exhaust system for the Convertible model which offers all the same benefits as the Coupe's but is specifically engineered to work around the additional strengthening that BMW has used under the floor pan to compensate for the lack of roof.The cat-back system features left and right-hand centre sections and a left and right-hand rear silencer configuration. To provide the subtle enhancement to the look of the car, Milltek have chosen to use quad 80mm Special tailpipes which are slightly larger than the standard tailpipes (as fitted by BMW) but offer a suitably more aggressive look.Anyone looking to make their M3 more menacing by giving it a deeper and more aggressive sound without moving into boy-racer volumes need look no further! > read more http://www.millteksport.com/product.news.read.cfm?articleid=49 info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Tue, 02 Jun 2009 20:00:00 GMT Product News UPDATEThis model has now been completed. Milltek have developed both twin and quad-outlet exhaust options for this car and photos of the system are available below:Original articleThe most powerful 1-series diesel, the E87 123d (with 204bhp), has been handed to the Milltek technicians to work their magic and produce a truly spectacular performance exhaust system. Modern diesel cars have proven very responsive to the fitment of Milltek's exhaust systems - especially in combination with a remap and we expect the 123d to be no exception.The car will not leave our workshop until all those criteria have been met! > read more http://www.millteksport.com/product.news.read.cfm?articleid=48 info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Fri, 24 Apr 2009 20:00:00 GMT Product News Milltek Sport, in conjunction with Revo Technik, have transformed the Seat Leon Cupra K1 from a hot hatch into a red-hot rocket ship of a car.By developing a turbo-back exhaust system with a larger diameter pipe, hi-flow sports catalyst, an eye catching tailpipe design and, an ECU remap from one of the World's most respected tuning firms, we've managed to create the car that the K1 was always meant to be.The Cupra K1 is now running well over 330BHP and feels absolutely electrifying to drive. Milltek engineers tuned the sound of the exhaust to be aggressive but without droning but still be quiet when cruising around - needless to say they have hit those targets once again. The throttle response is now razor-sharp and the extra shove throughout the entire rev range will blow your Christmas socks off!If you own a K1 and are interested in transforming the experience of driving, see your nearest Milltek stockist or contact Revo Technik. > read more http://www.millteksport.com/product.news.read.cfm?articleid=47 info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Thu, 04 Dec 2008 20:00:00 GMT Product News See the updated article on the new Milltek KTM X-Bow exhaust system. > read more http://www.millteksport.com/product.news.read.cfm?articleid=46 info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Fri, 21 Nov 2008 20:00:00 GMT Product News Milltek Sport has already completed development on a performance exhaust system for the brand new VW Scirocco GT 2.0 TSi. Milltek engineers have had to call upon all of their many years of experience on this particular product to create a catalyst-back system that not only offers many of the features that you expect from a Milltek exhaust, namely increased performance and enhanced driveability, but also a product that can meet the rigorous performance and quality demands of the TÜV & E-Mark testing regulations that are required in many European countries. The standard Scirocco exhaust system features twin 70mm / 2.75" tailpipes but the Milltek system features slightly enlarged twin 80mm/3.15" tailpipes. These tailpipes have been selected specifically to look like they are part of the original design of the car and not to look like an aftermarket add-on. The Milltek system uses larger, full bore pipework and acoustically efficient silencers for better gas flow.Milltek Sport have already started development and testing on a full turbo back system which will be suitable for high output vehicles and trackday cars. Both systems will go on sale during October.Many thanks for APS of Brackley and SKN of Germany for co-operating with us on this project. > read more http://www.millteksport.com/product.news.read.cfm?articleid=45 info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Thu, 25 Sep 2008 20:00:00 GMT Product News Milltek Sport has built an enviable reputation for quality and reliability, owing partly to an intensive programme of new product testing and a continual assessment and redevelopment of existing products.Milltek have been supplying their hi-flow sports catalyst and downpipe assemblies for the Golf 5-generation of vehicles since it was first released back in 2005. Since then, they have owned two Golf GTis, an Audi TT 2.0T and an Audi S3, all of which covered many miles of varied development motoring – including considerable time on the racing circuit under track day conditions. All the vehicles were remapped to suit their higher-flowing exhausts and all vehicles were fitted with an uprated polyurethane engine torque arm insert.The primary reason for fitting this uprated part to the 2.0T cars is to reduce the amount of movement these engine produce during acceleration and deceleration. Not only does this improve the stability of the exhaust system, it also has the added bonus of making gear shifting smoother to enhance the driving experience further.Such has been the success and reliability of this combination of torque arm insert and the Milltek downpipe and catalyst, Milltek have upgraded the downpipe kits to include the Powerflex engine torque arm insert as standard.The list of kits upgraded are:Audi A3 2.0T 2WD and Quattro versionsAudi S3 2.0T up to 2008 facelift carsAudi TT Coupe and Roadster 2.0T 2WDAudi TTS 2.0TSeat Leon Cupra 2.0TSeat Leon FR 2.0TSkoda Octavia VRS 2.0TVW Golf V 2.0 GTiVW Golf V Edition 30 and Pirelli > read more http://www.millteksport.com/product.news.read.cfm?articleid=44 info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Thu, 28 Aug 2008 20:00:00 GMT Product News If you think you know what a diesel sounds like think again! Milltek Sport has just completed development of their exhaust system for the new Audi A5 3.0 TDi Coupe. The system replaces the standard centre section, left and right-hand rear silencers and adjoining brace bar. The tips are slightly larger too but are still very much in keeping with the gorgeous looks of the A5.As you can hear from the video (right), the exhaust not only gives the car more power and a new level of responsiveness, it also gives it an aggressive V6 petrol-like sound.The system is available now from your nearest Milltek Sport stockist. > read more http://www.millteksport.com/product.news.read.cfm?articleid=43 info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Thu, 31 Jul 2008 20:00:00 GMT Product News Milltek Sports' Audi R8 enters the workshop for exhaust system development and is dyno tested... > read more http://www.millteksport.com/audi.r8.exhaust.development.cfm info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Mon, 08 Oct 2007 20:00:00 GMT Feature Articles All the action and results from the finale to this seasons Volkswagen Racing Cup. > read more http://www.millteksport.com/vw.racing_final07.cfm info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Mon, 01 Oct 2007 20:00:00 GMT Feature Articles Milltek Sport Golf GT TSi 1.4 development car now racing in VW Racing Cup with the same exhaust system available to all customers > read more http://www.millteksport.com/vw.racing_vw.golf.gt.tsi.cfm info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Thu, 26 Apr 2007 20:00:00 GMT Feature Articles Volkswagen Racing Cup (sponsored by Milltek Sport) race report from Rounds 3 and 4 at Donington Park. > read more http://www.millteksport.com/vw.racing_donington.cfm info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Mon, 23 Apr 2007 20:00:00 GMT Feature Articles Volkswagen Racing Cup (sponsored by Milltek Sport) race report from Rounds 1 and 2 at Oulton Park. > read more http://www.millteksport.com/vw.racing_oulton.cfm info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Mon, 23 Apr 2007 20:00:00 GMT Feature Articles A selection of magazine or website articles related to or featuring Milltek Sport > read more http://www.millteksport.com/in.the.press.cfm info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Fri, 04 Aug 2006 20:00:00 GMT Feature Articles Challenging Castle Combe venue tests performance drivers to the full - and provided a unique Milltek product preview. > read more http://www.millteksport.com/vw.audi.july.2006.cfm info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Tue, 01 Aug 2006 20:00:00 GMT Feature Articles We thought you might like to know when new vehicles are going to be released, so we've compiled a list. > read more http://www.millteksport.com/new.model.release.dates.cfm info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Wed, 28 Jun 2006 20:00:00 GMT Feature Articles Provides a general guide to the achieving the best results when fitting your Milltek Sport performance exhaust system > read more http://www.millteksport.com/general.exhaust.fitting.instructions.cfm info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Mon, 26 Jun 2006 20:00:00 GMT Feature Articles Report on the fantastic Volkswagen / Audi track day held on the 29th April 2006. > read more http://www.millteksport.com/croft.2006.cfm info@millteksport.com (Milltek Sport) Thu, 13 Apr 2006 20:00:00 GMT Feature Articles Announcing the new sports exhaust system for the Astra VXR / Opel OPC.
