I need an exhaust that will make my GTI sound crazy! What would you guys recommend, preferably DECAT and what are the price ranges along with drawbacks. Live in Leicester so preferably local... Hope to hear from you soon! :fighting: :evilgrin: :drinking:

I've got a 3" exhaust leading to a non-resonated Milltek backbox and I personally think it sounds awesome. It's actually very quiet when pottering around, genuinely sounds the same as stock (perhaps a TINY bit louder) but as soon as you put your foot down it just comes alive.
Got a few videos of it but the videos seriously do it no justice, it sounds like so much more in person.

A lot of wind noise but you can see how quiet it is driving around normally.

That sounds pretty sick! I was thinking even louder then that ? Any suggestions such as BCS the guys at rtech recommended that for me! Thanks
-
It's actually a heck of a lot louder than that in real life, like I said the mic doesn't really pick up the sound that well.
I've heard the BCS exhausts are pretty good and their customer support seems very good too but I've not heard their exhausts in person, there are videos on YouTube of their exhausts though.
If you want it that loud, maybe you should just get a straight pipe?
-
Without trying to sound rude, use the search bar at the top, as there's hundreds (and I mean hundreds) of posts related to exhausts on the forum already. Have a bit of time spare to take it all in, but it should give you everything you need to know. :happy2:

APR RSC exhaust sounds the nuts. :drool:
Try YouTube videos of BCS etc. . .
Tbh very loud exhausts sound great when your 18 years old, then the drone just gets annoying. A nice tone which disappears when cruising FTW :happy2:

My view is (always is and will never change) .......
BCS Sport Powervalve system with a low cell cat is what your after which will give you the best of all worlds ie. MOT legal, great for flow and thus mapping, quiet but with a nice burble while pottering around town, epic soundtrack when on WOT and the valve opens bipassing the central silencer and a great price as forum members get a great discount from the chaps at BCS.
Give them aa call.

I'm at Alex's on Monday having the old girl serviced etc if your around that area. :happy2:
-
How about, no exhaust :rolleye:
-
My BCS exhaust was awesome on boost. My old neighbour with his 2013 Porsche 911 always commented on how it sounded sportier than his car
-
The only way to know if something sounds "right" for you is to go out and listen to a few!
I've got a Blueflame turbo-back with sports cat. It still has the middle resonator but the suitcase box at the back has been removed. I think it sounds excellent, and I was very happy with the price I paid (tho about 2 weeks after I bought it they did a group buy for about £150 cheaper :sad1:). In terms of how it sounds, it is perfectly quiet when cruising (possibly quieter than stock), but has a nice throaty roar under load. Alex of AKS has heard it and said he likes it, and I'm sure he's heard a few in his time.
I've heard great things about the BCS Powervalve, and I have no reason to doubt it is an excellent product. However, it is a fair bit more expensive than what I paid for my Blueflame and I'm not 100% sure that it is worth the extra, despite probably being a better product.
-
try a scorpion back box, they get louder over time and iMO sound better and more sporty and slightly louder than miltek.
think about the same price or even cheaper. Well worth the cost

A cherry bomb... :laugh:

Eurojet TB with Decat just purchased mine from LVS Racing Pat is a top top man very helpful took delivery of it a few days ago can stop looking at in on my spare room floor will be fitting it along with my new REVO intake Monday, its a work of art all V banded joints welds look top quality full 3" from turbo back from listening to vids online sounds great USA made but was delivered within a few days from LVS Racing as said above.

The eurojet is loud! Good sound tho and a very well made system
The sports cat will quiten it down a good amount and will take minutes to change with the v-bands
-
I will update with Vids it really is amazing how it sounds on full chat from 4k-6k revs its nuts the pops ans crackles on over run and the up change going through the gears it gives off a massive crack n bang its the the AMG45 x10
Thanks for the info re the Sports cat, iv ordered it today so will pop it in over the weekend hoping for less drone a less ASBO :evilgrin: but i can put the decat in when i want to scare people! i wasn't aware the 2.0TFSi was capable of this sort of noise.
-
