Best Exhaust For Gti6 Conversion

[Para 82 2 Cars]

Hi there,

 

What exhaust would be the best for my GTi6 conversion ? I don't want to go to loud, my last car had 2.5" pipe with Magnex back box and it was to noisy. What should I go for this time ?

 

Thanks,

Mike

It will be enough ? I thought it's designed for 120 KM

The 2.5 is perfect for the 6 conversion, thats what im using. You could get a more quieter back box and silencer's.

do you think the 2 inch is too small? as in a free flowing 2inch with no horble bends?

 

what do the gti-6 have as standerd?

Mine has a standard Ph2 exhaust and is fine, not short of power and gives a nice rasp without being overly noisy.

 

Miles assured me the Ph2 system was perfect, and he should know.

i think the phase 2 exhausts are 2inch i think.

As long as you have the 2.5" downpipe of the correct length and proper mandrel bends in the rest of the system I wouldn't think a 2" system would strangle a standard 6 engine. In fact theres quite a few forum users using 2" systems with 175bhp+ engines.

as said the 2" seems fine on the 6 engine and gives the same std power or there abouts in 205's, The Phase 1 1 1/2" or 3 piece system is horrid and really makes a huge differance,

But I tend to use my 2 1/2" system on quite a few car's which I;ve yet to have any that I know of on the roller's

167 BHP requires 2.02 inches, so good enough I would reckon.

Thanks guys, so far I will go with standard exhaust , as I have nice Gutmann back box. In the future I will be happy to get some custom made 2.25" exhaust, that would be definitely enough.

Has yours got the 2.5" downpipe? Id like to put a stainless back box on it when I get it will one still fit ok?

I had a 2.5 system on when I first did the conversion, Now I've gone back to the standard phase 2 job, nice and raspy when you put your foot down, and you can still have a conversation!

Is it also hard for you guys to source original exhaust for Phase II ? I find it very difficult in Poland, there is a month waiting time and it has to be shipped from Belgium for some enourmous amount of money :/
