Exhaust 7.5 with PDF.
« on: 31 July 2025, 10:05 »
Hi to all, I have recently bought a 19 plate GTI 7.5pp with an after market exhaust. manufacturer not known but it has two silencers. But its annoyingly quiet, now I am aware that this model has a pdf which I'm not prepared to delete for obvious reasons, and it obviously effects the tone of the exhaust. But I would like to be able to hear my engine, so my question is , has anyone found a suitable cat-back system that would improve the sound.
                              Thanks Doberman.

I have a full Sports CAT non res Cobra Sport on my Mk7 and love it. Zero drone, and deeper and louder when on the throttle but normal driving all you get is a bit deeper with a burble off throttle.

Thanks for the response, you didn't mention whether you have the GPF filter
which the 7.5pp has, so I'm not sure if it would be suitable for my particular model.
But what you are suggesting sounds very interesting. cheers Doberman
