Hey all,
I've been around for a while on the Golfmk5 and mk6 forums and just recently picked up my first MK7, a Tornado red 2016 GTI S DSG.
As I understand it the rear portion of the stock catback prevents the RSB from being removed easily on jackstands and it needs to be dropped. I have some goodies on order including a PP sway bar & new shocks, struts, so im just wondering does the RSB come out easily when you have the spring, & shock out? I'm sure I could figure out all this by just trying it but the stuff isn't here yet and im not familiar with the layout of the car yet... want to see if anyone's tried this. My back isn't as good as it used to be, if I can avoid any unnecessary time fiddling with the exhaust and do all the parts at once that would be great.
