Title: What exhaust are you running... I'm ready to purchase!
Post by: 22caddy on 18 September 2010, 23:09: Hi

The standard exhaust on my MK3 16v is coming to the end of it's life and rather just replace it with OEM I though I would stick out a request to find out what others are running on their Mk3's.
I will be replacing it with a CAT back system and would prefer a 2 pipe exit.... that isn't toooo loud but has a good sound!

So lets see what you have got... pictures and video's welcome!

Post by: Dan_GTi8v on 19 September 2010, 19:42: Get a Jetex, far superior imo to any other system (unless your a chav and/or like to be heard 5 miles away) Sound really nice, fit well, and look good to boot :)

Post by: Dan_GTi8v on 21 September 2010, 12:21: if you do any sort of long trips or motorway driving, too loud an exhaust can get very tiresome :P

Or give you a big fat grin playing with the rev range.

Its a shame the rest of the family and some friends don't have the same mentality :laugh:

Post by: LazyLunatic on 22 September 2010, 12:34: Jetex ftw! Very good quality system. Nice and quiet, but sounds nice when you boot it. I have a 2.5" cat back 2 box system, non-res with a twin tip back box.

I love it, can't fault it.
