Hi, Wondering if anyone is running a straight through exhaust on a standard 1.2 Polo 6r? If so some videos of the sound would be great as am planning on doing this.

Currently running a sports res and a sports backbox, the sound is nice but would like it louder and be able to extenuate the crackles if possible?

Hey, what kind of res and backbox have you fitted? I'm looking to fit those on my Polo S, but I've been struggling finding parts online.

Cheers for the help with that, legend. How does it sound? How did it fit at the tail end, since the stock tailpipe is downturned and the bumper has no tailpipe cut-out

That backbox just fits directly under the stock bumper mate šŸ‘šŸ¼ (Check image below)

Sounds good from about 2.5k to 4.5k revs, my center box has a blow in it at the moment so sounds a bit odd due to a bad sealant job. Sounds perfect otherwise, nice deep tone to it.
