Exhaust system query
« on: 31 January 2007, 19:58 »
Hey guys, Im after a new exhaust for my Mk2 GTi and im wanting something a bit special. At the moment I have this ugly peice of crap hanging out of the back of my car and its blowing, as is the centre section



Problem is, ive looked at all the Magnex etc systems and im not a fan of a huge tailpipe or the like. Is there anywhere I can get a stainless system that resembles the original system??

Thanks in advance for any advice

miltek's look like the original I believe... http://www.vwspeed.co.uk/index.php?cPath=15_22
JBS autodesigns in chesterfield have these on offer at the moment, think its 10 or 15% off.

Oh it does say 16v but am I right in saying that the 16v and 8v exhaust system is the same?

No they aren't.  They have a different diameter pipe as far as I know.

Not boy racer sounding or boomy on the motorway. I have one and recommend it highly.  :smiley:
