Just ordered the V8 myself and waiting to collect it in the next day or 2
I’ve looked at the quick Silver and Miltek, from what I can gather you have fitted a control button/activation (phone app) which will operate the valves in the exhaust, closed neighbour friendly, open I hoping hear one of them in the flesh to make my mind up 2023 Defender L663 V8 2016 Range Rover Autobiography 4.4 TDV8 (gone) 2010 110 XS Utility 2.4TDCI 2010 Range Rover Sport TDV8 (gone) 2007 Discovery HSE TDV6 (gone) 1993 110 csw 200 tdi (gone) 1994 90 HT 300 tdi (gone) 1994 discovery 300tdi (gone) 90 hybrid 3.5 v8 (gone) Range rover bobtail 3.5 v8 (gone) |

I’ve now got mine
The stock exhaust is good but looking at the YouTube vids an after market would be a great upgrade! I’m now looking into both quicksilver and miltek 2023 Defender L663 V8 2016 Range Rover Autobiography 4.4 TDV8 (gone) 2010 110 XS Utility 2.4TDCI 2010 Range Rover Sport TDV8 (gone) 2007 Discovery HSE TDV6 (gone) 1993 110 csw 200 tdi (gone) 1994 90 HT 300 tdi (gone) 1994 discovery 300tdi (gone) 90 hybrid 3.5 v8 (gone) Range rover bobtail 3.5 v8 (gone) |

I haven’t heard the Quicksilver but my neighbour has the Miltek and it sounds great. The welding also looks superb. WARNING.

Cheers Zed, i have read on the grapevine that the Miltek is a better sound but also not so good on quality? the Quick silver has some nice looking carbon tips 2023 Defender L663 V8

Nice. I think Miltek also have the carbon option but he went for titanium instead. WARNING.

I have a Milltek on a 90 Carpathian Its a great sounding exhaust but I would strongly suggest you get it fitted with a authorized dealer for the warranty as I'm on my 3rd silencer due to the something coming adrift inside and rattling

Click image to enlarge Just fitted Milltek resonated system to my 90 V8. Definitely louder than standard but not crazy. In Dynamic mode you can hear it being more throatier, but in normal mode it seems to have more pops while idle revving. Went for the titanium tips as I preferred them rather than having 4 polished pipes out back. Also ordered the silencer bypass pipes (non-resonated) in case this wasn't 'loud' enough.. will decide in a couple of months whether to add them on or not. ps. I've noticed a slight droning around 1,500rpm in highest gear (probably around 50-55mph), not a big deal though. |

Quick vid (excuse the filth, weather is right now). Dynamic mode on around 20secs in.

Thanks! Rules here in the US may be different to the UK so I can't comment!
Also over here no GPF on our cars so sound will probably be slightly different? |
