K04 stage 2+ downpipe?

<< < (2/2)

MC71:
I have a BCS Sports Powervalve TBE with a 200 Cell Cat on my Eddy and it really is as good as others say.

While pottering around town its as quiet as an OEM system (albeit with a deeper tone) but when you go WOT and the boost comes in, the valve opens and all hell breaks lose and the noise is immense (for a 2ltr car anyway  :laugh:) and really does bring a smile to your face.

Is the difference between the sports and prestige power valve systems the sport is louder on boost?
The powervalve system is now on my shopping list for my Cupra R. Just not sure Sport or Prestige?

MC71:
^^^^ The Prestige system is quieter (a bit) as the central silencer is a little lager IIRC but FWIW both will sound like the muts nuts once the valve opens. The Powervalve itself is after the central silencer (on the back box) so I'd imagine the whole Prestige system, on and off boost will be a little more quiet .

Kevscupra:
Ok thanks, think I'll go for the sports system for more on boost noise and bigger smiles.
