Turbo Back RAI exhaust
Next up, RAI 3 inch SS Turbo Back exhaust system. Debated alot. I wanted some sound, but nothing super loud. RAI came out with a discount so went with that. Before that was considering 42DD or APR. Read other thread on my exhaust install experience.http://www.golfmk6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19190
Overall: Like exhaust, louder than I hoped for, but performs well. Initial pics: [IMG]http://i770.photobucket.com/albums/x...ndJetta016.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i770.photobucket.com/albums/x...10730-0943.jpg[/IMG] Edit later: Now considering adding an in-line silencer or something to take some of the volume off (just a touch). Update after 6 weeks: Talked to Ray at RAI. Decided to add in line Vibrant 18 inch bottle resonator. On its way now. Will post pics and sound clips once installed. [IMG]http://i770.photobucket.com/albums/x...resonator2.jpg[/IMG] Here is the video before resonator added: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jOWeKPITqQ Update after resonator add (2 months after original install). [IMG]http://i770.photobucket.com/albums/x...ey/GTI/001.jpg[/IMG] Pics of the area that original install could not get to line up. So later we needed some welding. We cut the downpipe support piece off standard exhaust and attached to RAI downpipe. [IMG]http://i770.photobucket.com/albums/x...ey/GTI/009.jpg[/IMG] |

Finally bringing it down. H&R Super Sports. Chose H&R for decent drop and good ride still. Loving the drop. I thought I might need spacers, but tucked-in nicely. Handles and rides great:w00t:
