Supersprint exhaust
« on: 02 July 2006, 18:50 »
Hi - sry to appear dumb but this is my first post.  Have bought a mk2 gti today fitted with a supersprint exhaust, twin "box" style.  Insurers want to know what the performance increase is - any ideas?  Sry to be a pain but the paper work doesnt show what increase it would give.

Its a MK2 8v GTI

Thanks guys.

Is it a full stainless system or just a back box? I think with a back box, probably none. With a full system some would say up to 10bhp but I'm not sure if anyone's got anything to back any of this up?

Id tell them its not there for performance but for looks and long life. If anything tell them 2bhp.

If the engine is std I wouldn't expect any noticable gains really, agree with Ben 2bhp at most :)

Why even tell the insurance company, as far as your concerned its just a new exhaust. It doesn't have a great effect on either performance or value so say nothing

Cos if you dont declare modifications they are well within their rights to void your policy!
