Anybody have a jetex exhaust on the 1.8T ?  i know miltek come highly recommended but i have a load of halfords vouchers so would be costing me virtually nothing and halfords dont do miltek .

most people opt for twin 3" rounds... especially for the mk3's - but it is totally your choice

which do you prefer?

yeah i like the twin 80mm tail but they are showing 2 on their website one of the exhausts the twin pipes go to the side slightly befor exiting through the splitter

what i dont is to have the exhaust sitting below the splitter without cut out i soar that today on a mk4 and it made his car look well tacky about 5 pounds worth.  :lipsrsealed:

i think i see what you are saying...  :undecided:

you want the tail pipes to sit correctly? right?

have a look at my tailpipe picture... jetex are a very well made exhaust and it fitted very well - it's even and just looks right

best thing to do is to give jetex a call directly and ask their advice about which one is correct for your car... I did that and the old boy I spoke to was very helpful indeed
