Do you get any drone? I only get a slight drone in 6th or 7th gear at low RPM
I wouldn’t call it drone but you do hear the exhaust note while cruising.
I am planning on automating the valves so I can limit the noise when in light throttle as it’s not the best sound. When giving it the beans it’s great but when you’re just puttering around you probably want it mostly quiet.

Love to hear how you automate the valves. I'm looking at a Varex setup ATM - its a bit pricey though!
2018 VW Tiguan 162 TSI Sportline
APR Stage 3 ECU tune, TVS Stage 2+ TCU tune, IS38 Rev F turbo, APR intercooler, APR dump pipe, Racingline intake kit & 034 rear swaybar.
XForce Varex muffler & controller on the way.
Does anybody run catless and non resonated donwpipe with golf r catback valves open? Is it at least bearable?
I have fitted whole 76 custom catback and going to replace it. Every thing located in the car salon starts ringing at 2200-3000.
Thats going to be loud all the time.....
I ran an aftermarket rear muffler with my CTS 200 CEL Cat, no resonator with stage 2 tune and it was unbearable.. It was so bad that I put the stock muffler back on after 2 days.
Has anyone tried fitting an XForce cat back for the mk7/7.5 onto a 162TSI R Line Tiggy? I am hoping that one will fit straight onto my CTS downpipe/res delete.
I think when they say "cat back", they mean dump pipe back. My CTS dump pipe has a cat mounted a bit further back, on a straight section of pipe, and deleted the factory Tig res, although I imagine that it wouldn't delete the res in a golf. I like the fact that the X Force system includes a res (hopefully eliminate some drone) but it is a "hotdog" style, so hopefully it will clear everything under the car.

Yes the CTS downpipe has a 200 CEL CAT under the back seats as have one also installed, this is what causes the CEL light as the 2 x oxygen sensors are near the back of the turbo where the stock CAT is.
