Cupra 290 '66' Decat videos/opinions

That's interesting, what's it like for drone on the motorways? I think my car already has had the mid res delete and I was thinking of decatting but not sure due to drone and volume!

Dp and decat do not add to drone. I had it for a moment just with 3inch decat dp and resonator and back box were stock. It was just louder.

With res del I had it was not that bad but drone was there. Not something that makes you want to shoot yourself but it was a lot less comfortable then scorpion I have now. Not becasue of pure level noise as I think it does not vary a lot comparing to scorpion but rather to frequency of low flying jet plane.
Definitely bearable but I would lie saying it was super comfortable.

What was the sound like at full chat with the resonator still in but with decat dp compared to without?

 

[Janusz]

Sound was great, like nice bassy exhaust note, only coming from the front
Sonething like sound actor but 3 times more powerful. Hard to compare it to something tbh

Hmm I want more of a rasp angry noise than a bassy boomy exhaust. Hmmm!

At idle you want a nice low burble, but when going for it a nice rasp and pop at gear change

You need to open the pockets then and go 3inch end to end

 

[Didster]

No because that noise would be unbearable. Just want something that gives a racket when on chat and quiet when not!

get a valved exhaust. boost controlled. actually easy to make yourself if you're handy with a welder
