I was thinking about doing either an exhaust delete and have a shop fabricate a twin center pipes or go with the VW center exhaust.

Did some searching and came up empty. Any 1.8s out there sporting VW’s twin center exhaust? Interested to hear how it sounds https://www.volkswagenpartsplus.com/oem-parts/volkswagen-center-twin-sport-muffler-stainless-steel-5g0071905b?origin=pla&gclid=CjwKCAiA2fjjBRAjEiwAuewS_TaZYHmiaRe54LcjfjlmOhEyEFUR5ycIFz7WfwPQtpqAyoS7KiQtVhoC9IAQAvD_BwE

Would love to see some pics/vid and hear opinions.

I run center exit on my car with a magnaflow muffler. It was custom fab'd by a local shop and as such was way cheaper than buying a full catback. It looks great and, since i removed the resonator, sounds a little more agressive than stock. I have a GTI Jake downpipe going on as soon as it gets warm. I'll also be installing a vibrant resonator at the same time so its not too droney...

I got the center exit valance used and it did not include the little side wings that join the valance to the edges of the bumper at the wheel wells... its stupid but it makes me mad every time I see it...

Thanks Basemodel! I've started reading your journal. Love seeing the progression. Its looking awesome!. It's cool to see that you did a lot of mods that are on my list!

It looks like the rear valance that you used is this one?

Also, did you reuse the tips from the magnaflow muffler or was it something else? What diameter was it?
