all back and sounding goooood!
the pinched (triangle) bit between the muffler and the cat has been replaced with a straight through pipe.
instead of cutting a hole in the valance I got him to add and extend a second pipe out to just underneath the valance (but still hidden)
Added a couple of dump tips.
Tied the flapper closed into the more sedated position as well (used some tie wire)
All up $220 (inc gst)
This post is proof that you can add a MKIV r32 muffler easily to a bora 4motion.

Just did thirty km up the freeway and back.
There is the smallest and I mean marginal increase in noise over stock but it's not even noticeable.
No drone at all....
I'm pretty bloody chuffed.
I'm off for a 300km round trip tomorrow but I'll give it a few days then swap the flapper around to see how the louder version goes..
I'll keep an eye on fuel consumption as well

Spent the day with a car magazine driving my Mk4 GTI and a new Mk6 GTI (manual).
We were based in the Royal National Park south of Sydney.
It's for a 10 year 'then and now' feature (eg 2000 GTI vs 2010 GTI) which will include other performance cars.
Was a lot of fun and the photos are AMAZING, but until the edition runs you'll be settling for my crap phone pic:
P.S
The Mk6 is a riot!
Very fun car which can quickly flip from being a comfy cruiser to a mad bastard.
The car was tornado red with cloth trim, 17s, ACC, manual, satnav and Dynaudio. No sunroof. I want one.
