Would love to hear what that sounds like?

Also may of missed but I'm sure I didn't see it.... what bhp are you expecting now? notice much difference in mpg?

Looks so gorgeous!

Awesome progress Matto!!  :happy2:

I'm loving all of it  :smiley: I think i'm going to eventually get the S3/R32 brakes, love the little things like the R32 gear knob and pedals  :smiley:

I'm in the process of doing a couple of bits on mine  :wink:

I'd like to hear what the exhaust sounds like  :happy2:

Keep up the good progress,

Cheers,
Ben

Thanks for all the comments. I will have to try get a video to post up so people get an idea what it sounds like.

Mattgriff - As far as I'm aware the exhaust wouldn't make alot more. The only time it was on the dyno was when it was mapped. Ran 216bhp/464Nm then. As for mpg, the computer never reads as high as it did but I still get the same or more miles to the amount of fuel I put in. Still get into the 50's.

Thanks mate! I've been reading around and people are getting around 230bhp with the dpf delete so just wondered what your figure were.

Cant wait to hear it!! :D

Yeah some people are running that or close to. Maybe with upgraded hardware. AndrewJB on here was running Stage 2+ Shark on his Leon FR which was around 225bhp but said it was too smokey for the road. Mine make a reasonable amount at 216bhp.

Yeah I can well imagine with that DPF out the way! How was the map before removing the dpf did you have any issues?
