16V exhaust needed



TT catback here.
Very pleased with it, if you ignore the problem of trying to keep a nice tip on it.....

  I have three TT exhausts and two Borlas. I'd go that way again, though the
  fitment of some of the TT pipes was a bit problematic on my 8V. There was
  no problem with the other two. The Borla on my 16V is quieter than the
  Dynomax it replaced, but the 'max was deteriotated internally, making it
  really blatty and ricey. And I'd still say my 16V isn't real quiet (insert
  grin), mind you, it's more likely because of some cracks in the exhaust
  manifold and the gutted cat. My Bug's nice and quiet with the Borla except
  for a tasty growl on startup. I'd go with that combo again though, and
  someday I'll have a Borla on Klaus too I expect. Are 16Vs ever really quiet?
