My brother and I install the X-force catback exhaust with the varex muffler on my car. It is essentially straight piped with the valve being open and sounds amazing. The exhaust setup is as follows, catted downpipe, resonator delete, valved muffler. I will make another video where I mic up the exhaust to get better "raw" audio.

More people hopping on the xforce train, honestly the best bang for the buck imo. Prices have been climbing though, I noticed the price has gone up significantly since I bought in 2020.

Good walkthrough showing off the exhaust, I have an MK7 with this same catback and catless downpipe, love the little bit of extra rasp. Def will share this video in groups where people want to find an exhaust.

Appreciate the support! Very nice affordable setup and sounds amazing. I’ve been thinking about swapping out my cat to catless to see how it sounds.

i have the same setup but in a 6mt, do you get a lot of drone over 3k?

Dear what kind of bulbs you are use in the car?

I hope you see this in the near future but I plan on getting this setup and I was wondering what kind of downpipe do you have and do you pass emission and smog test in it

@bimchers6643 Жыл бұрын

I have the cts catted downpipe. All my mods from this video are in the description. I’m in Illinois and I pass emissions no problem. You do have to solve the CEL when installing the dp through a tune. Not sure if I ran catless that it would be the same but I have no legal troubles with the car! We’ll worth the money on this setup. I love it!

How many miles on the clutch? I have a '15 GTI running APR stage 1 but im going stage 2 next month. Going with Unitronic because APR doesn't do stage 2 anymore.

@bimchers6643 2 жыл бұрын

Still on stock clutch, about 15k with stage 2 tune and it still is more than reliable. Planning on new clutch when the big turbo comes in haha

do you think the muffle or the valve part pretty low？

@bimchers6643 2 жыл бұрын

Don’t think I understand the question. But when the valves are closed. It sounds very similar to stock. When open it screams with a loud but very deep tone.

@nathanbrown2039 Жыл бұрын

I see most people saying they can’t have the valve 100% open. Any issues with that so far?

@bimchers6643 Жыл бұрын

Not sure. With the pops & bangs on, even if they weren’t fully open I’m sure they are now lol.

@nickgiesinger3513 2 жыл бұрын

the drone is mainly with the valves open?

@bimchers6643 2 жыл бұрын

Pretty much only with the valves open. Might be different if you have stock downpipe and the resonator on. Essentially I have a catted dp into nothing. No resonator on my car.
