      It should come with the res delete pipe otherwise your not getting the full downpipe.

      You wont regret removing the resinator

              Wow!!! Congrats that is super exciting. Will you be getting a downpipe also? Have you done any mods so far?

                Good price as local cost is around 2.5k. How longs delivery?

                  My plan is to get the CTS downpipe as well, then get them both installed and dyno tuned at the same time
                  I'm wondering whether its worth getting an intake as I'd like the engine bay to look stock still (any significant kW gain?)

                    Not sure at this stage, as I've only just ordered it online on Friday, hopefully not too long, but then I'm in no rush as I'll need to buy a DP from somewhere. I can get a catted CTS DP on ebay for ~950, just have to wait for my next paycheck

                    • Panel filter (BMC) and air intake pipe (change to a good multi ply hose) would be the main restrictions. If you are doing the turbo you might as well change the air inlet pipe also, people say not to bother with the turbo muffler delete, but I just did it anyway as the turbo was out already.

                        Make sure its the R not the GTI downpipe otherwise it wont clear the rear driveshaft.

                        That one on ebay have been on there for sale for ages, says there only 1 off.

                          You and Melbourne_Tiggy were correct, the full pipe removes the resonator, got some photos inbound. Also did a short before and after rev in the garage to hear the exhaust difference. From inside the cabin it sounds a little deeper, a recording highlights the difference, just cleaning up the vid and I'll post it.

                          Really impressed with stage 2, did a launch and still can't wipe the grin from my face. It pulls really hard all through out the rev range.

                          The mid range pickup is particularly impressive. Sports mode on the DSG turns it into an animal

                          • No APR pops and crackles file just yet for the Tig, requests has been submitted for it.

                            Video was pretty quickly done, so hopefully if gives an idea of what it sounds like now, after DP install is around 32secs in.



                            Didn't get the dogbone done as they didn't have my version in stock, will be done in a few weeks time.

                              Wow, well done mate! That sounds really good- deeper sound. You will surprise a few cars on the road with that.

                                Sounds better on boost at high rpm... Where in SE area you live? Will keep an eye out for you as I am also in SE.
