Yo Man Wat Kind Of Exhaust Is This?

[BMXican906]

your turbo sonds like its about to blow up...poor car.

[mybigblackfriend]

i hear the jettas have a lot of electrical problems and won't really start in the winter when it's 0 degrees fahrenheit,

have you had any problems like that since you've owned yours?

[brontoe]

I can't say much, i don't live anywhere near that temperature, i can tell you this much, the mass airflow sensor and the spark plug coil packs are known to go bad in this jetta.

[mybigblackfriend]

how much do those normally cost to repair not including labor?

[brontoe]

well don't replace it if it doesn't need to be. around over 100 dollars. remember ur driving a european car!

[mybigblackfriend]

haha yeah no doubt, i was just wondering cause i dont wanna drop a lot of money for a car then have to keep putting more and more money into it to keep it running properly.

@brontoe Got a 2001 1.8t, there was a recall on the coil packs, so head to your local dealer and get them replaced (I know its an old post, but heck, free coil packs!).

[Omgturboooo]

@brontoe im assuming you have an mk4 jetta, check your local dealer. there is a recall on the coilpacks

[brontoe]

@Omgturboooo yeah as soon as i got the recall letter, my coilpack blew afterwards. cylinder 4 that is. Done and Done! thanks!

[penpen132]

@mybigblackfriend Will let you know, in a few months it will start getting cold where I live, got the car last december, and I haven't had any trouble starting it.

[scirockalot8v]

does not sound too bad. i have a magnaflow side exit exhaust on my GTI 1.8t. i have a couple vids check them out.

[bdix69]

what DV,BOV do you have?

[brontoe]

I put my DV on backwards which makes it louder and the turbo spool sooner. Its a Forge DV.

[bdix69]

could i do that to my stock one?

[brontoe]

doesn'r hurt to try... give it a shot, it'll take u like 10mins to take it off, make sure u have rings clamps on it.

[bdix69]

hey i have to go get some, ill post up a vid of me doing it and seeing if it works. how does it make it louder?

[brontoe]

Its bascially an, ""Echoe""... Metal aluminum piping helps, Taking off the carpet on your hood helps too, and the DV is Metal so its spring loaded. Which means You hear metal hitting metal.

[bdix69]

its like that in the stock DV to? if i take off the carpet on the hood could i put it back on if i did not like it?

[brontoe]

No the stock DV is plastic and rubber. And the carpet has clips on it. I threw mine away, u don't really need it. Its just for sound muffle.

[myjettaisabel]

Sounds pretty good. A little bit a' drone, but not bad. I'd go get a high-flo cat from magnaflo. That's where you really notice the difference.

[brontoe]

Thats true, it will sound better with what u are saying. Problem is, high flow cats tend to be illegal in california. i can't do that. but goodluck!
