C30 T5: Does a pre-facelift exhaust fit a facelift?
Got a chance to buy a used Milltek from a pre-facelift T5: will it fit my facelift (R-Design) C30 T5 or will it require some moderate fettling/fabricating?
Any thoughts appreciated! |

Just to update my own question: after a bit of research apparently it will, but the tips might be out a few mm so will need some fettling I presume.

I'd be surprised if you have an issue, but not too much hassle if you need to tweak the end tail trims I guess.
You'll definitely like the Milltek sound (if cat back), grown up but a deeper more sonorous edge. |

Thanks kmb. The one that’s available is on a pre facelift but apparently originally it was on a Focus ST. Not sure if it’s a perfect fit or a 99% good enough fit... Off to a respected Essex exhaust firm tomorrow to have a chat with them to see what options there are, and also how much to fit the Milltek if I do go down that route 👍

Exhausts....
All the exhausts for the small Volvo T5s and the focus ST with the identical engine have the very same exhaust run and hangers and the big rear transverse box. Every Volvo has a difference in the spacing between the rear pipes and the buggers even changed that if you had a Volvo body kit.... all the various Volvo spacings are achieved by different L shaped final pipes and various polished ends.
I do also have some Focus RS pipes available at discounted prices..... but you will need to call me for the best deal.... the end pipes would also certainly need some adjustment... http://kalmar-union.com/parts/ford-ford_focus-exhausts/ Don.
