Nice, thanks for the info! I wanted to make mine a little louder while still looking like the factory setup.
Any photos or video of the setup?

Is this for the new GTI? Like 2015+ model?
Been looking at getting centre silencer removed but if I can get a new pipe to fit then even better?!

Yeah it's about on part the only thing you need to do is cut the pipe as the exhaust is still a one piece I bought an original slip clamp from Vw and it shows on the diagram at Vw that there is 2 clamps so if it needs to go back in it will look like it was meant to be there
