6R Polo GTI Middle Muffler Delete

[gavs]

what are people's thoughts on replacing the middle muffler with a hotdog, rather than removing it altogether?

Not much point, there isn't any real increase in noise until you reall open the throttle.

You'd be better off replacing the rear muffler with a hotdog and have the front resi deleted. Would probably be a bit too loud though

Hi Bassik, 6 cars are booked in. So if you're not 100% sure in going ahead then it's probably best to give someone else your spot.

have you looked at a proper aftermarket exhaust? I think from memory that Jetex does one for the 1.2TSI and the GTI milltek system that is Cat back *MIGHT* bolt up with some modification but there is no guarantee of that....

have only looked at ABT exhaust/Diffuser kit but that's close to $3k!

OK, the 6 cars above have been booked into Castle Hill Exhaust for centre muffler removal.

Time: Saturday, 3rd November 8:00am.
Address: Unit 68, 4 Hoyle Ave, Castle Hill, 2154
Cost: $80 each (basic job only - discuss with installer on the day for any fancy flanges etc)

They have allowed 40mins per car. Please show up at 8am. They close at midday. So you'll be home to your wives/girlfriends by lunchtime.

I have already paid a $200 deposit for the booking since their hoist will be not available for other jobs.
So please, if you have to drop out, find someone to take your spot.


Any other polo owners wanting to join us on the day and chew the fat in the car park is welcome. I will have a VCDS cable/laptop on hand.

I have one spot available for this. First person to confirm via PM gets it.
