exhaust pops
« on: November 02, 2014, 10:38:52 am »
A couple of my mater are running around in focus st's and rs's and there exhausts pop a wee bit and I think it can sound quite good sometimes, just wordering if there is anyway to make the golf pop the same?

Mine pops when I gently Rev it at cold idle.

A decent de-cat exhaust may get a few pops, but these TFSIs don't seem to want to do it like the STs, Mini Cooper S etc

Sweet,

I had the soft cut on my 1.8T.

Niki told me that he wouldnt load the hard cut on my 1.8T as I didnt have rods. is this the same case for the TFSI engines?

TFSIs are stronger than 1.8Ts  :happy2:
