Golf R Observations and Questions

[DDTW]

Thats just too tight for me bro!!

That is something I would do to an old Cordia or something!

Haha!!!! But I'm sure part of you still want to give it a try! It's really easy to do (and remove). I don't see how having an extra tailpipe open all the time will be bad as well.....more flow = smoother power delivery?

My only concern is will kinking the actuator tube thing cause it to spoil?

[Corey_R]

This left pipe right pipe and valve actuator doesnt apply to the GTI I assume?

Correct, it's only a feature of the R.

[Mr_Bob]

Same here. The left pipe is black, but the right one is still clean .....

This is a symptom of insufficient throttle usage....

Judging from how filthy both of mine get, mine doesn't share this fault...

Like wise, mine are equally dirty...

Might explain the 340km I get from a tank too...

[masev]

My two left pipes are so black they have that "carbon fibre" look to it....

You've only posted APR without exhaust dyno logs.

[adzy]

Sexy exhaust bro!

[Fab_R]

Bizzare exhaust design in the ass end...

[Beena]

Is that a new downpipe as well? If so - are the dyno graphs with it still on Stage 1 software, or upgraded to stage 2?

It seems to increase the top-end a bit, but not much else. No torque increases lower down as would be expected from downpipe/Stage 2.

[VW Central]

Beena, he needs the HPFP it will change a bit more with that..

It looks like it is overboosting though..

[VW Central]

exhaust is turbo back....FP is being added this week + another dyno...

and can you get an Evoms intake while your at it. I want to see how it compares to Fab_R's, same car, different exhaust and one is manual one is DSG. This will be interesting

[Fab_R]

Nice work Corey...Photo Bucket rocks!

Different dyno's though, cant be compared.
