    Thanks Gavs. So it's not the same as the Mk6 in that respect?

    I've heard others call the Mk6 noise a DSG burp/blip/fart. Is it the exhast or the transmission that 'causes' it?

    It's the exhaust, when you change up gears with the dsg, the ecu cuts the spark to the coilpacks and this is what causes the blurt/pop/fart etc. With th ecentre muffler removal, it becomes evident. With a bigger exhaust, it becomes further evident. With a nice striahgt through system, i'm sure it would be further enhanced

    Cheers man!

    +1 for GO Pro HDs. I use one for spearfishing. They pack a lot of punch for a small unit and are perfect for mounting on/in cars.

    Do not speak to Ramspeed, they're time wasters and will gut you for money (also they have officially lost their license for selling ABT so you won't be getting a factory based warranty).

    Talk to Tunehouse mate.
