    exhaust option

    Interested to know what sort of exhaust system will suit my golf?
    it has a new lukey sports one at the moment , but the back pressure from the rear of the zorst is really powerfull about a meter of pressure,
    should i change it to a bigger diameter ??

    the car is at golfwagen at the moment so cant get any measurments now but it would be about 1"3/4 ,2" ,
    Preen what im trying to say the pressure out of the rear is strong , so i think maybe i should upgrade to a bigger exhaust to have a better flow ?? cheers

    try a rear sports muffler...I went with the extractors option, but couldn't be bothered with the $ to upgrade to a 2" system thru' out, so just changed the rear...gives a nice tone with the Weber (bit like a Fiat 124 twin-cam or even a rotary, but no drone)

    mate, if i am to understand that you are trying to tell if your exhaust is big enough by feeling how far away from your exhaust tip you can feel the "breeze", then you are on the wrong track....

    2" is good for mk1.

    hope to help

    I got extractors with 2" pipe, one hotdog muffler, and a rear muffler.
    is resonably loud. but sounds so right
