On post 9, i described the exhaust. Not sure if you saw it before you bought yours.

I actually like how it is just mildly louder than stock. Maybe i'm getting old(32) and just prefer something quieter
Initially, i did think it wasn't loud enough and had a little regret buying it but now, i'm actually very happy and content. I wouldn't want it any other way right now. There are plenty of mk7 folks with loud exhausts near me and im glad this TCR exhaust isnt like those.
My GTI is a manual and i do hear some subtle pops when decelerating and letting off the gas. Kinda cool but not obnoxious like those guys with the pop tunes.
Video of the TCR exhaust mated to a 2018 GTI. Just an axleback swap...everything in the exhaust system is stock
