Very nice indeedy  :happy2:

What diameter are the tail pipes as they look pretty small or maybe it's because they're hangig too low?.
Thanks, Sounds the dogs...
80mm tailpipes, yeah think they look smaller cos hanging a bit low.
Won't get chance to tweak it till the weekend now  :thinking:

I can imagine the sound  :jumping: I need to get back into gear as I've slowed down due to the cold weather. Really thinking of the BCS cat back now as I'm liking the sound of quiet until floored  :grin:

Oh dear, what you got fitted?

Managed to get 30 minutes after work to look at the rear hanger, turned out to be easier than I thought. Just enough room to squeeze the trolley jack handle in and persuade it upwards... :signLOL:

Ended up looking like this...



which is far better than this

ive always used Remus but change to milltek when I had the tt as the pipe diameter are bigger and it sounded a lot better but I think because of the BCS on this golf makes it a little too noisy  :doh:
