It helps to drain the coolant first eh ;D. What car/engine is that?
'82 Rabbit, I put on a euro vnt-15, 2.25" DP, 2.5" exhaust, the result.....it whistled.

I removed the turbo, made a toilet bowl 2.5" DP, the result....it was deafening. Now it has a homemade muffler up front and a thrush in the rear, the result.....less loud.

I never got to drive the car  :'( I backed it out of the shop and it was running rought and parked it for the last month. The Headgasket was busted pretty bad.

And yes a VR will put up with me since I only drive a car 2 days a week lol, and the golf is only in the summer.
