I have a stock Golf R 7.5, which I like a great deal.......but, the only thing I really miss, is a nice exhaust note. I think these cars come with an exhaust that is too quiet, from factory. With Black Friday sales coming soon, thinking I can change that.
I like the sound of a few aftermarket cat-backs. The AWE, APR and Remus sound nice, but both pricey, compared to a catted downpipe. I was thinking IE catted downpipe, removing resonator, and keeping stock muffler in place. Would this option sound good? Throaty?
For the price of IE downpipe, I could get a JB4, and still be cheaper than aftermarket cat-backs. Yes, I would like the extra HP from this set-up, but how would the exhaust sound? Would it sound close to AWE or Remus exhaust note?
Any thoughts from guys who have or heard this set-up?
