The cutout sounds good man... wondering if you decided to keep this on and use it regularly?

[Meatstick62]

@joygasm247 no, I actually took it off a week later. I didn't like the sound. It was to much like an SRT4 for me and resonated really badly inside the cabin

How long r u gonna keep it like this?

[Meatstick62]

not sure. gunna see if it uncorks any power on the dyno. i'm not 100% crazy over the sound, but it sounds better in person from outside the car than it does from inside or on a video. if it doesn't add any power or if it kills my low-end than it's coming out

@Meatstick62 im sure it killed your low end...i know this was a year ago but what were the results? i know on my moms audi 1.8t it killed the low end but when rpms went up high she ran beautifully :D

@RazorWind92 I never got a chance to get it on a dyno. The motor to the valve got ripped off by a curb at Homestead so I scrapped the whole thing.

@visualpr3cision yes the least amount of restrictions in your exhaust will help with the spool sound thru the exhaust. my 1.8t has a catless 3" downpipe with a magnaflow muffler and no resonator and I can hear it spool pretty good through the exhaust :)

Also, my 2.5" qtp electric cutout just came in the mail :):)

[visualpr3cision]

i have a mkv gti and did the resonator and muffler delete and i dont get that downspool sound. if i get a catless dp will that do the trick?

Sounds good IMHO!...a lot like mine. I run a straight pipe dump...most are annoyed by how loud it is, but it's intimidating on the street LOL
