Title: exhaust and dump pipe
Post by: Gohst on 26 August 2008, 00:44

hay guys sorry to bother you with heaps of questions but i just bought a mk 4 gti golf (will post pics when its clean) somebody told me that the standard exhaust on them are great because i was thinking of running a stainless steel turbo back but they said you only do that if you want the noise you will have the same gains with the stainless as you will with the standard if you just replace the dump pipe is this true ??????

Down pipe, presumably. Unless they're mixed up with dump valve.
