Title: Some advice please?
Post by: admc6 on 16 October 2007, 09:38
Just some quick advice if anyone knows.
I've got a Mk3 Gti 8v Anniversary and need to get a knew exhaust as mine has started to blow. I have decided to do it properly and get a s/steel one.
I was looking at a jetex one, just a twin round 80mm.
Is this a good one to get for not looking too boy racerish?
What is the difference between this one and one thats a high performance system? Apart from the high performance one is £25 cheaper  :huh:

Any help would be most welcome

jetex are a high performance system. Milltek is another brand to have a look at.

But when you look at their website they have 2 products which are the same but one says its high performance.
Just want to know if anyone knows why they have this? and why is it 25quid cheaper?

They fit both

It is the same on other sites too, with having £25 difference

maybe there are less bits in the silencers meaning less metal=less cost?? = noiser notes.

yeah the sport one looses 1 box for a louder (MORE SPORTY?) sound

you can see it in the pictures on the jetex site... the sporty one does lose a box... think i'd opt for the quieter one too but whatever floats your boat i guess?

Middle box is a muffler i.e a sound deadener. It will be a lot louder without but may well see improved performance through better flow
