Anyone had this system on there Xu? - underground375 - 08-11-2013
HI all still looking for performance exhausts for my 1.8. Has anyone ever fitted this system?

He states that it's for the 2.0 s16 / Gti but I'm led to believe the system would be the same fitment as the 1.8 16v?

No the 6 uses a different manifold
I did have that fitted to mine with there decat but it caught the gear link heatshield not sure if was a fitting issue or just been supermarket but removed shield it was ok. Get a 6 manifold to go on also

That will go straight into the cat no problems. But they are loud.

Oh ye sorry I just assumed it was a full system. Ye very loud! I had to change the backbox it was deafening

Do you think its best to not have the centre section and just have the back box?

It depends how loud you want it to be and it depends on the make of exhaust. I got a magnex on my S16 with and centre section and back box and that isn't to bad and that's with a de-cat

the 205 systems they do are quite poor as is the fit, You pay for what you get basically, Also no Race 306 that I know of would use one of those either as it's too small and far too loud

i've got a sportex centre section, everything else standard, works well, has quite a nice deep exhaust note but not overly loud, but at the minute i think i've got a collapsed baffle in my backbox so it sounds a bit... crap, but it does rasp after 3.5k...lol
forgot to say actually, on sportex's website you can get a similar system for the 1.8 which has a small centre silencer...
