Anyone here got 3 inch straight pipes ? Would like to know what they think about it. Got an appointment in a week to get it done. Videos would be well appreciated

In my experience, you're going to get sick of it real quick and gather a lot of unwanted attention.

Lmaooo I like the attention and the loudness. But I’m kinda afraid I’m not gonna like the rasp to it so thinking of that is the case I’ll slap a little resonator in there. You had the straight pipes ?

Search YouTube for "GTI straight pipes" and you'll find a few videos. It's not "20 year old Honda" bad, because the turbo muffles a bit of sound, but it doesn't sound great. It's just a lot of low quality noise.

Lol if it sounds that bad I’ll put a performance muffler on

Yeah I’d throw a few dollars on the side for a vibrant resonator, at least. It’d probably leave you with about the same volume with less rasp.

I’m the oddball that likes a bit more rasp and treble in my exhaust note and a little less bass, but a straight pipe is just too much for me.

I love it. Puts a HUGE smile on my face everytime I drive it lmao.



not too crazy raspy if full throttle. Just a little.



3inch pipe to a 2.5 inch pipe. Used to be a Borla catback til I cut the resonator off.



Sooo the mid piping is all 3 inches but then where the muffler was it’s now 2.5 ?
