Haha sorry matey. Just far too many non gti polo's around my end with monzas on so fancied a complete change to make it stand out more, and Rotas just seemed to fit perfect :-). As for the exhaust, its a massive change in noise mate. It doesnt sound chavvy at all. Its a nice subtle, deep burble noise, and has a nice barp on boost. Yes, it is just a straight through pipe in its place. Didnt have i welded though so i can remove it for dealership visits lol. Best £20 ive ever spent haha

Yeah mate. Its a head turner now. Cost me a fortune in fuel this week now. Keep givin it a quick boot and gear change to listen to the pop haha and i complety agree with you about the miltek. Way over priced.

Custom made pal. I didn't want it welding, so that i could pop the box back in for when it goes into the dealers. Just so they dont winge. Its just clamped and sleeved on :-) any local exhaust garage will sort it for you mate. Shouldnt cost you anymore than £30.
