Exhaust

Post by polo_GT »

Will a g40 full exhaust system fit on my gt including the manifold. I have had mixed feedback some say it will and some say it won't and i might loose back pressure.

That the fun of plug & play parts within the polo range :D
And you´ll even get some little bit extra power. The G40 Manifold has the biggest bore off them all. This because of the need that the G has to get the burned fuel mixture out :) (sort of)
I have the same mod on my agenda got all the parts at home.

The only thing what worries me is to get the old one off, the bolts are known for their restistance
You´ll easily could ending up drilling new holes. :cry:

Ive got a scorpion system off G40 and a decat fitted to my GT. I've still using the GT manifold and my GT downpipe has been flowed to remove the restrictions in it.

I found that I lost loads of bottom end torque, but when I chipped it, I got most of it back, but its still not as tractable at lower revs, but it much freer revving at the top end now.

I had loads of trouble getting it so that it didnt rattle against the bodywork, so welded on a new rear mounting and the back box is mounted 2 inches further to the left than normal and about an inch and a half higher, so that its not scariing on the ground when I drop my car
