Got the rest of my exhaust from the de-cat back last week, absolute awesome sound

I know people say avoid Powerflow but I am more than impressed with the work of my local dealer

Nice burble when just pottering around but turns into an animal on boost :D

Will get some pics up tonight

Yeah I went to Turriff tyres. My mate has used them for his old Ibiza and now his Leon so I knew they were good

I've got it mated to a milltek decat, definitely notice the gains with it on and sounds nuts

Here are a couple pics of the exhaust, went for a 4in outward rolled tailpipe because everyman and his dog go for an oval it seems lol. Slightly up swept too to fill the oval cut out on the bumper

Ordered this at lunchtime on Monday and was here just over 24 hours later, top service from Awesome Gti. Will be fitted at some point today. Also have a 3bar FPR to go on just before my remap on the 2nd of March :D

So after a lot of shouting and swearing i finally got the TIP on. I had the old one off in a flash, no problems there

Things started going wrong when it came to fitting the new one, it just didnt seem to want to line up......and then I realised I had it routed wrong.......doh!!

Once it was routed right it fell into place

Took it a quick run round the block once it was on and it does seem a wee bit louder on spool up, havent booted it yet so still to see the full effect. Has added a few more pops and bangs though :D

Well the car is finally running the Stage 2 map.......almost lol. Took it to be mapped this morning and forgot about the FPR needed for Revo :cry:

So I didnt leave disappointed they put Stage 1 on for me so I didnt leave empty handed and told me to phone once the FPR was on and they will do Stage 2 as soon as its fitted :D

For a temp time I put an adjustable one on so will be back tomorrow for Stage 2 hopefully :D

Stage 2 completed today......all i can ay i wow. What a difference a remap makes :D

Had to run stage 1 for a few days and i must say there is a noticeable diifference between stages

Well chuffed with it.......better start stock piling some tyres lol

What power did it make mate? Nice car btw :) I'm looking at getting mine up to stage 2 soon

Cheers :)

Never had it dyno'd, will get it done at a future RR day. Not too fussed about figures tbh, if i kno what its at i will just keep wanting more but im happy as it is for now, can easily feel the difference without having a bit of paper that says it

You running stage 1 just now??
