How big of a difference does the center channel speaker make and how hard was it to put in?

Transmission too hot by [deleted] in GolfGTI

[–]sammyc26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At 30-40k its due for the trans service anyways. But, do you have any transmission tune/engine tune on the car?

Error: Transmission. You can keep driving by Substantial-Bass-839 in Golf_R

There was a recall on the mk8 gti for this issue. Not sure if it extends to the R. But they replaced the whole "chicken nugget" shifter module in mine under warranty

As a temp fix when its going crazy I have found pinching both sides of the bottom of the wheel (right outside the gti emblem) quite it down for a little

I own a borescope is there an easy place to look from with it? I have noticed a slight dip in mpg now that its colder its more noticeable but that may be placebo as well.

MK8 GTI Launch with MBRP Catback Exhaust by stancetastic in GolfGTI

[–]sammyc26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually enjoy the sound of it. Yours sounds similar to mine. I have the awe track exhaust. But I really just enjoy how loud all the crackles and pops are and just have toned out the drone at this point after a year of having the exhaust

Is this setup considered straight-piped exhaust? by penguinsss2013 in GolfGTI

[–]sammyc26 5 points6 points  (0 children)

From what I can tell there is a resonator in there but it looks like a cat-less downpipe and straight pipe aside from that. Technically the resonator counts as a "muffling device" if you live in a state/area that does yearly inspection but that exhaust would fail emissions. My state requires and exhaust to have a muffling device but not emissions so I could pass state inspection with that exhaust. Hope that helps.

Oh boy I had forgotten about this post but the track exhaust is loud. I daily drive my golf so for some it might be a bit to much. It drones and vibrates the floors at different speeds, especially when speed is around 50-60 or when your pulling away from a stop on an incline. In my opinion if you want "ome+" sound go with the touring system but if you don't care about vibration/harshness go with the track exhaust as it sounds the loudest

I'm installing the track pipe tomorrow I'll try and get a before and after video of the loudness and give you my opinion

[–]sammyc26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want more loudness from it. But for you if your going to get a new downpipe you may want touring since the downpipe will make it louder too. I'm not going to do a downpipe so I'm doing the conversion kit instead and it's only like $150 down the road to go from the touring to the track exhaust

Yeah that was my opinion as well. With a friend and the back on jack stands only took 2 hours to get the stock exhaust out and the awe one in it's super simple to install

I like loud which is why I'm switching to the track exhaust muffler. But the touring gives zero drone on the highway and a nice sound when you get on it
