Title: Recommendations on an exhaust
Post by: Paddy on April 11, 2018, 01:18:50 pm

After some advice on a new exhaust set up. Want it fairly standard looking and not to loud! Stainless with cat. Just wondering if there's one out there or get a custom one made up. Any info would be great. Cheers

I can highly recommend the PPP ones:

You'll want  a twin silencer system for it to not be too loud.

Look in the ads, someone is selling one second hand with minimal use.

Not sure where you are, but Mtech Automotive do a good custom exhaust if you're around the south west.

Has anyone got a "shutup" valve put on a noisy pipe yet?

I see them all day long at work, thinking about getting a second hand one and having a play. There has to be something you can do to a Polo exhaust to make it sound less like "farty Metro" noises. I had some chopped up heinz backbox on my first G40 in about 2003 with a standard downpipe, cat and resonator, it used to rumble and sound nice. I removed the resonator and it sounded shit. Never heard a "nice" sounding Polo (my opinion, of course!) with the exception of mine, but I was inside the car so not a fair comparison.
