Standard edition 30 exhaust ??

[Sweeney]

Isnt the v6 engine quite tappety at idle also?

[R32UK]

If you want to hear how an exhaust should really sound then I am happy to give my loud pedal a little punch for ya 'all

think of the Fuel though  , My ST sounded pretty nice though

My cousin has an ST which he picked long before I got the .:R and I must admit that they do sound very nice... but did read somewhere breifly at the time that the noise is resonated into the cabin (think i got that right).

Outside i wouldnt expact them to sound just the same as the golf, but i have obviously never compared.

As for fuel... dont think the ST is that much less thirsty than the R32

At idle yes... altho believe it or not its often quite hard to hear the engine at idle, even when stood outside, not sure why that is. It sure as hell dont sound like a diesel though!!

What i find is that you can only hear the tappety noise in short bursts... is that normal??

Its just not a golf tho!!

granted, it is indeed quicker than a golf

bit of a bug bear with me this tappety sound,

my old v5 used to sound like a beast at idle and that was with a standard exhaust.

shame they couldnt do something with this engine to make it sound better.

The Milltek only makes it a little better at idle too. I thought is would burble more

[zerolight]

My standard GTI is pretty quiet. Certainly doesn't have the lovely burble that my WRX had. But it sounds nicer than the diesel A4 I traded.

Does it sound louder or quieter than mine in the video below? At idle and full revs!
