#1: Scorpion exhaust for GTI 180 (or Janspeed) Author: lee1985, Location: North WestPosted: Thu Jul 26, 2012 7:41 am ---- I want a performance exhaust to give my car a more sporty sound, not bothered about performance as I know it'll only add about 1 BHP.
Question is, do they actually sound sporty, in terms of sound - are they worth it at £400 for a cat back system? If so, which one. I want one that sounds loud (within reason, not like a subaru) and sporty but not like these chavvy idiots whose exhausts sound awful, like they are blowing raspberries.
Also, the bottom part of my exhaust (on the inside and around the edges) is black, does this happen over a long time or pretty quick? I ask because it would be nice to keep my new exhaust looking very shiny for quite a long time - possible?
Its hard to explain exactly but best bet would to have a search on youtube

The Scorpian uses the same silly piping as the standard which bends through about 2 miles of tubing to get to the bumper, whereas the Janspeed goes directly front to back. May not help so much with power - although technically it should, but also think more on weight reduction and heat transfer...
Makes sense...
MARTINIUS - just had to comment on the video...

Ok - 2 miles is a little bit overstated, but if you look at the two systems you will see what I mean... think of it this way... if the Janspeed was a roman road, then the standard (and Scorpion in this case) is a Welsh b-road..

#14: Re: Scorpion exhaust for GTI 180 (or Janspeed) Author: 206boyracer, Location: Sunny CornwallPosted: Fri Jul 27, 2012 1:58 am ---- Don't know if they make one for the 180 but I have a magnex system on my 138 I have had the centre box removed and that gives a nice deep tone. Burbles a little too and pops when I slow in the gears. Doesn't sound very raspy in the high revs either.
