2004 R32 Stock Exhaust Non-Resonated Flapper Open/Closed

A short video of my 2004 VW R32. I had the resonator removed from the stock exhaust, and installed a 3-way switch to control the stock exhaust flapper on the fly.

Do all the ECS tuning switches blow? Or did you just get a bad one? Because i wanna remove the resonator and flapper mod on mine too. Did your check engine light turn on cause ive been hearing that it does

[Brettnyt]

I have heard that they have since fixed the problem. I simply ditched the resistor, losing the "stock" option, but I did not really see a need for it anyways. Now I have either always opened, or always closed. I did not get a check engine light.

how much did it cost you to get this done?

[Brettnyt]

To have the resonator removed, $25. I installed the flapper switch, which I bought from ECS tuning, but I suggest you just make your own switch. Their resistor blew right away, and nearly started a fire in my car. grrrrrr. Total cost, about $35.

so if i did this to my r32 stock exhaust it will pass?

[Brettnyt]

It should as long as you close the flapper when u take it to smog
