« on: 30 January 2020, 19:39 »
Got a mk7.5 gti performance with the sh!tty gpf filter so no res delete for me, wanna make it louder n been looking at remus race back box delete but unsure of if it will be loud enough/too loud? Anyone done anything similar or any advice on which way to go?

Question - why do you say 'no res delete for me'?

Maybe he's thinking the resonator and GPF are one and the same and is worried about error messages if removed?!?! :huh:

as a prospective new owner, I was wondering about this! Has anything changed on the very latest GTI models compared to the early post WLTP cars? The reason I ask is because I also follow the R forum (why not :smiley: :smiley:) and info there says

https://www.vwroc.com/forums/topic/33932-r-75-post-gpf-filter-mods/

indicates no resonator box if I understand correctly or is the R  just different??

The newest golfs have no resonate as they have the gpf instead

Our Golf 245 (registered July 19), is a DKTB engine code with a GPF.

It has a resonator, as I was under it last weekend.
