Mk5 Golf exhaust upgrade

**higgzy77** · 09-02-2010, 08:27 PM

Hi guys,
I'm new on this forum and also new to driving (p's) and as anyone new to anything always wants to improve whether it be his tools or his skills and in my case its both.

I have a DEC07 golf I got dirt cheap and would like it to sound more throatier and heard a GTI roar past me and liked the sound of it's exhaust and was wandering if anyone had past experiences puting either converting a cat-back to a GTI or from headers down and whether it would be possible/ worth it.
I would be getting this from a Euro wreckers and havn't yet priced it so would also like to know if it wouldn't be worth just getting a custom Cat-back.

Cheers

Sam

Hello Sam,

you might get a better response if you supply some info about your car - particularly what sort of engine it has ie petrol/diesel, capacity, turbo or not.

I've got a GTI exhaust laying around doing nothing.. the stock GTI exhaust would be quite loud on a non turbo car
