1.8t cat back?
« on: 16 September 2012, 02:33 »
I'm wondering - what is the best cat back exhaust that will make my car a bit quicker and sound better flr around 200-300. Also, would I need to change the rear valance to install one?

Thanks :)
I thought Volkswagens were supposed to be reliable?

I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...

Thanks for the info - but I really don't know much about exhaust systems. I don't know what a suitable kit would be to buy from ebay or something. I want a discrete non resonated cat back system that will fit under the bumper. Not a fan of flashy exhausts, or having to buy new rear valances.

Is this all I would need? Also - is there a guide on how to fit a new exhaust, or would it cost much at a garage?
