My Polo GTI

[FLYINGTI]

I would love to get the same exhaust - and pick it up when I am in Sydney next month. I will be staying in city, do you know where I could pick one up, or can help me get one? I will be in Sydney 18th and 19th of Sydney....

what's the model name?? and which might be the closest shop from CBD?

Thanks!

(by the way your car looks great!)

hey matey

the place i got it is like a wholesaler and wont sell direct to me!
i can problably get one of my mechanics to order it for you, but they will need a money transfer first you know!
hope that helps!
but it is possibly to get one!

How will you lug it back? They're imported from the UK, I don't think anyone holds onto them. Maybe try Rennenhaus?

[insanekiwi]

Oh they are not Aussie made?? I always thought it was. What's the model number?

[VWindahouse]

APR exhaust is made in Brisbane for the polo but Milltek is UK as noone said.

[noone]

oh wait, I thought we were talking Milltek for some reason...

[VWindahouse]

Me too, wrong thread

[FLYINGTI]

[insanekiwi]

got my new tune, super happy with how it runs!
just need to fix a few restrictions as i think its still could perform much better!
needs more breath!

what have people done after they tuned there polo's to get that more ooommmfff out of it=)
Cheers matty!

PD160 and dump pipe would be your first point of call after the tune and bits you have listed in your sig.
Might want to think about cooler sparkplugs, summer (ie intercooler). You can have a think about adding timing through Lemmiwinks or something similar, contemplate the N249 bypass, SAI removal, etc. All depends on how much you want to tinker and how deep your pockets are...

We'd all be happy to see a BT Polo here, so feel free to jump in the deep end!

thanks for the ideas Ben =)
there not massive pockets at the moment but... im sure they will empty even more as time goes by if you know what i mean

BT polo???

Pretty much as you said mate it's about the restrictions now starting with air intake as well as the tiny and very crappy flowing intake manifold. Then on the exhaust side the restrictive exhaust manifold and dump pipe. The cat back is actually fine for flow. Then the list goes on and on and on!

Anyway hope you enjoy the tune and I put $10 on you investigating a stage II tune upgrade and all the bits required for it by the end of the month

Bahahaha!
thats not fair, that didnt even come to my mind!
now im going to look it up, and propably talk myself into it,
cheap shot haha

do many people try getting a custom down pipe made??
My mechanic took it for a drive yesterday and said he could hear the the exhaust was struggling with 18 pound!
he was saying a 3" would be nice?

[VWindahouse]

Ha ha yeah couldn't resist sorry bud! From what I can remember of old dyno tests 3" dump pipes are total over kill for the polo and mess with back pressure. 2.5" has given very good and consistent results. Can anyone back me up with this, i can't remember how long ago I saw the results for the 3" dp?

Cheers!
