  • RS230 / RS245 Exhaust (is it different to a standard RS)?

    Hey Everyone,

    I'm after some feedback from anyone who owns an RS230/245 or who has spent some time with one. Is the muffler on this car different to what comes on a standard Octavia RS? If so, is it just the cat back, or is it Turbo back.

    My aim is to find one thats taken a hit at a wreckers and pinch the system off it. I'm after a bit more noise, but not a lot.

    Cheers!

    It's the centre res,
    Normally it's a huge triangle, 230 is a small cylinder.
    If you search the Octavia forum, you'll find a post that I did that links you to the briskoda forum with full photos.

    I might have a photo at home also

        Mate, you’re a legend. I’ll have a read when I get home.

        Cheers.

              Interesting... thanks for the photos. I don’t think I could do a full resonator delete, but it would be quite easy to get an exhaust shop to make something up? I’m just being cautious of freeway drone.

              Does your current system have a noticeable note and fart on gearchange?

                All 230s were Manuals, but the Overseas models got the DSG and yes they fart.
                I get the over run farts when I have the throttle % just right on the odd gear change

                  Great! Would you say it’s about the same volume as a standard GTi/R?

                    Pass, I've been told a few times my car (Pre Downpipe install which made it louder) has a nice note.

                    RS230 @ 3:53, Stock and Tuned GTIs, Skodas, Rs, etc. You can tell the RS230 from the other skodas

                      Thanks for that! Assuming yours was the grey wagon at about 3:35 after the 86? Was that pre down pipe?
