    Exhaust modifications for a petrol Tiguan??

    Hey guys,

    What would be involved in modifying the standard exhaust set up for a 125TSI Tiguan in order to get that 'GTI' burble sound?
    Know what I mean?

    I just love the sound that the MK6 GTI makes when it shifts gears...particularly when downshifting.

    Any issues to be concerned about?
    Ideas?

    Thanks

    To get hte GTI burble you would need a catback exhaust or a resonator delete.

    I have the muffler delete but it only burbles on release from WOT.

    Just get the exhaust system from GTI wreck. That should guarantee the burble.
