Custom jobbie then. First 280 to get BCS I'm guessing

 

[AndrewJB]

Yeh its the development exhaust will be a power valve one.

Power valve? So it's quiet, then valve opens and boom, noise?

 

[shnazzle]

Love it. Sounds great on betty_swollox's Cupra. Makes a proper roar when it opens up and near stock otherwise

 

[AndrewJB]

Yep!

After the FR TDI and LCR which were stupidly loud I want quiet but loud.

Looking forward to hearing it. Hope you can get some vids, as I'd love to hear it!!

Very interesting

 

[shnazzle]

Much better look than stock

 

[forge197]

Be good when you get it back and some more pictures, are you keeping the cats or have they gone with this setup? Does look lovely

 

[AndrewJB]

Its a Turbo back system so everything has been replaced.

Its a 3" downpipe with 200cel sports cat, the system is a Powervalve system (Noise gets louder as boost increases, boost controls a valve) and its the sports version.

 

[AndrewJB]

So here's the pictures (All of them are Copyright BCS)

 

[AndrewJB]

Here's the OEM cat-back.



Golf R and Cupra 265/280 have a 3 silencer system, Golf GTI has a 2 silencer system

 

[Daniel M]

Very nice. Personally I would of had a different tailpipe design though.

 

[RabRS]

I think the tailpipe design is utterly perfect. Should have come with then from the factory.

I wonder if it's possible to only change tailipipe trims? I'm not going to modify this car, but hate the oval trims...

Thanks for sharing more details Andrew, looks skilfully made, look forward to your thoughts on it and be interesting what sort of DB it would be for trackdays for the noise test and drive by

At the moment when ever I go the marshals say it's the quietest of the day!! That and the static Rev limiter

Nice addition to the car
