free power on a stock aaz

210mm clutch with the 16V petrol pressure plate is supposed to be a more hp friendly set up  :wink:

You can find 2.5 inch stainless steel catback exhausts on eBay.de for ~270Ģ
-much better flow than any stock system and quite enough for until about 300 hp.

As for the clutch, the AAZ is biggest that fits (it's 210 mm, right? ), but you should look into SRE or SPEC clutches. You'll need a stronger pressure plate and grippier disc pretty soon!

Dyno proven? My 2,5" exhaust restricted at less than 200hp. Didnīt dyno, gteched only. TDIs and gassers are different than IDIs.

Yes, it could be I remember a TDI dyno run.
But somehow it's peculiar that a 2.5" system will restrict power at 200 hp (gas engines can run 500 hp with 2,5" after all). Shouldn't that relate to about 300 IDI hp anyway?

cat back?  cat!!  only got a back box on it any way lol  but its only a 1 3/4 " system any way. and mild steel.

Cat back means that it's not a complete turbo-back system, it starts from where you would have your cat if you had one...

An exhaust for a Mk1 TD would fit - the downpipe is the same and the turbo is in the same location.

what are they called in german? I've looked before and had found one (the guy never answered me for the postage) but that was the only time I saw one.

Golf I auspuff
Golf I sport auspuff
Golf I edelstahl auspuff  -  that's for stainless steel
...also try Golf I GTI auspuff ( and also try "Golf 1" in place of "Golf I")

You know, any Mk1 exhaust with the right tube size will fit... You'll have to make your own downpipe anyway, no matter where you buy.
So it's OK to use a Golf GTI exhaust, as long as it has a large enough pipe diameter. There are 2.5 inch stainless systems available on many eBay shops, for example.

I ordered my 2.5-inch stainless system here:

...very nice quality, but I haven't tried it yet. There's no reason why it wouldn't fit anyway. I ordered a 'rennsport' system - that's for racing - so I only got one straight-through silencer.

There are more vendors there, with different options.

thanks for the link  

but my mistake, I was thinking about the original MK1 GTD downpipe

[carrizog60]

when building a full system do we need the fex joint like the one that 935 racer was selling?or that isnt needed?

in original form it doesent have...
