Holy shit, What are you doing on a car forum? You should be designing cars.

 

I dig it. What are the specs on the car? Expected gains from down pipes, etc? It's either fortunate or unfortunate, but catbacks almost never add more than a couple hp these days. The stock systems are that good. They just don't always sound that good

 

As I previously mentioned...

 

I doubt I gain much hp from this as the stock system flows very well as it is, but it will definitely sound badass. I will post pics of the instal and sound clip once its all in.

I'd think with intake, downpipes, cutback and a tune you'd be looking at 25hp.

 

Car has a 3.6 VR6 275hp, 265tq haldex awd and a tq converted auto weighs about 3850lbs i think?

 

that's about right... I can dyno when all is done to get correct numbers. Any suggestion where?

Yes, gaskets and stainless steel bolts were included.

 

Versluis:

 

These dp's were made by Devon (Lucifer) in the UK. You can find him at VWVortex forum by R32.DEVIANT. They are exact same as Miltek at half the cost. Many others have them on their R32s and had good experiences with fitment, so I thought I would try them. We'll see how it goes is weekend.

I believe I saw you today around 1230 off 23 heading towards Delaware, if so far looks real nice! But man is there any way to tuck those mufflers up a little bit? I'm not sure if that's the look you're going for but they seem to hang out and stick out a alot. Rest of the csr flows real smooth then bam mufflers lol.Just my 2 cents.

Love it! Sounds great too...if I'm being picky at the video, UGHH at the automatic transmission and it's rev-effect when shifting. That would drive me nuts.

 

From a fellow Passat owner, I commend what you've done, sir! :thumbup::thumbup:

That was me otw to Glenross GC. I agree they hang about 1 inch too low. I will try to adjust things a bit but most likely will have to add a hanger in a couple places to make it look better. It needs a good wash too hahaha...

yeah the trany makes me nuts, I usually just run it in tip-tron and it behaves a little better, but definitely would love to have a 6spd MT instead.

Took a couple hours today and adjusted the exhaust hangers. Had to heat them fuckers up to bend them out, they were pretty hard. Now no more "pipes on the ground" :thumbup: Whatcha think?
