a little bit ambiguous

have you got a GTi/Driver/R32?

depends what you want to go for? what style? full system or new back box only?

have you seen any that you like?

go for non resonated

15%  :shocked:  never happen i'm afraid - you'll be lucky with a 2-3% but what you will find is the car will rev more freely and sound much better.  May also help with a smoother power curve  :undecided:

Yes, Milltek do the OE look exhaust - They label it the 'Discrete' style.  To keep noise to a minimum, you'd want the system to have the 'resonated' centre section. :afro:

if you go on the miltek website they list the exhaust for the 1.8 non turbo and 2.0 but if you just want a back box then you will to get the 1.8t but as rich said back box only :afro:
