  • 06 GTI Resenator and Hi-flow Cat

    I've been reading up on the 06 having a resenator and also interested in changing to a better flowing cat.

    I'm really not interested in paying for a full exhaust, but thought there might be a better sound and possibly slight gains to be had from these changes.

    Can anyone comment on the flow restriction from the 06 middle muffler / resonator and possible change in the exhaust note if removed?

    I have the APR Stage 1 V2 software, if I replace the cat, will I need any code changes? Is there power or flow improvements expected from this?

    I had read about changing the cat to a XR6 Tubro or similar cat as they have good flow, and not paying the $$$ for something that is over-spec'd for my cars requirements. Any comments on this theory?

    Mettams told me to not bother changing the cat...

    They put in a 2.25" pipe from the cat back with a slim looking 'cannon' type muffler while still retaining the dual chrome tips (just bigger ones )

    il get that video done for you and uploaded today....can't recommend it enough!
