Milltek Valve Controller / Remotes now available

[elusiveaura]

Just passing off some great info. I stopped by Milltek and they installed the valve controller and provided 2 remotes for their exhaust. Here’s the link to purchase.

Button 1 opens the valve. 2 closes it and 3 will put it back to open factory workings.

Any questions, give Milltek a call 865-233-8918 or shoot Brit Leigh a message on Facebook! https://www.facebook.com/brit.wagstaff?mibextid=LQQJ4d

Milltek is wonderful to work with and can help you get an exhaust too. I’ve had their exhaust since February and still love it!

What is $ for those that already purchased the exhaust?

If $400 not worth it IMHO as the exhaust functions so well with the drive settings as is.

Is the installation as simple as plugging this into the valve controller harness?

Does anyone know if this gets plugged in at the valve and mounted locally or it needs to be run up to the engine bay/fusebox?

Ive seen a couple YouTubers who got them and skipped showing how they are installed altogether and just showed the results. There are no videos, no installation instructions on any product page, nothing. Starting to become a little skeptical. The lack of publicity is leading me to believe it needs to be run to the engine bay which would be a PITA and hence the hush hush in marketing it

I have it and the box and wire is ran up and placed in the trunk/hatch area underneath the fix a flat unit. I don’t know of anything that runs to the engine bay or fuse box. The wire connects to the valve controller of the exhaust and communicates with the remote.

Anyone's Milltek valve controller stop working?
My remote lights up, but the valve never responds to the options on the remote...it just stays open.

I took off the controller to make sure it wasn't the valve, and the OEM system controls the valve as normal.

Now my Milltek controller just stays in the open position. Doesn't close at all now.

I'll try new batteries I guess...maybe even though I see it light up the signal is too week from a potentially dying battery.

mine did shortly after I got it but it was due to a shorted/pinched wire from the heat shield getting hot against the wire. After that no issue.

Great, time to start hunting down wire issues ?

 

[elusiveaura]

well not saying that’s your issue. Just a “possibility” to look for.
