You've got there pretty nice dub ; ))))
magnaflow exhaust - i was planning to buy it as a group buy on vwvortex; is it louder than a stock one, whats your opinion about it (do you have 2.0 or vr6)
DSR 256 cams- nice ;d, but i rather stay with fuel economy for now

Haha, yeah the cams do like the fuel but they work along side my stage II supercharger setup. I put down about 250hp to the wheels. I am actually very happy with my magnaflow. It has a nice low rumble at idle and sometimes cancels its own sound out at certain rpms. And for $350 it couldn't be a better deal. Btw, mine is a 99 VR6.Originally Posted by Sh0cker
yeah cams are supposed to eat up more fuel but then again so does the sc.. nice though. And the magnaflow is definately lowest amount the exhausts. I've thought about a TT stainless steel for my dub. I'm also on vwvortex frequently with the same username. Hit me up.
Mine needs to be updated.
Samc you have pretty long history on 'tex, i read couple of your threads over there, interesting.
Since you guys know much better about the exhausts which should i get: one from tttuning or magnaflow, or something else? Mine is falling apart (including cat) and im looking for something quiet to do not wake up neighbors at night.

Awsome to see a few mk3 guys hear. I have all the parts for my system all together, and I am just working out the software. I'm not using an LCD scree, so I don't plan on using video. I'm keeping the stock head unit, and using the VWCDPIC to emulate the cd changer. Control is through a palm with http://www.giantdisc.com/
I have an m100, it's black with green screen. So, the color scheme on everything still matches OEM.
As far as the exhaust goes, I think you could find more info on vortex, but if you wait around every couple of months there is a group buy on the magnaflows for like $360 ($600 without the group). A lot of people like the magnaflows the best. But, if you look at the dyno charts, you get like 10hp, all after 5000rpm, that wasn't worth $360 to me, since I rarely go above 4000rpm.
Let's keep the Mk3 Picture's comming. More power to anyone who tries.
for a 6 banger the magnaflow and TT will be very LOUD. A good loud but still no where near quiet. I have a few guys running the milltek, remus, GHL on their vr6s. Milltek is very very quiet. Remus is maybe a slight bit louder. GHL is somewhat loud also.
I would personally recomend the Techtronics exhaust. 2.5" stainless steel, it'll be music to your ears. And yes Ive been on vwvortex.com for a while
Mine needs to be updated.
Yeah I guess I'm just used to how it sounds. I like it though and I can't complain.
Now if I could only get my project started...
Is this setup going to include a touchscreen?
yes, ill buy the touch panel as well as controller most likely from digitalww (within a month, need some funds
i spent too much money for this project already: epia, memory, gps, lcd, opus, and much more...

How much did it cost you to get your dash customized? Or did you do it yourself? I want to do something like that but i am a complete newbie. Could you drop a tutorial on how you did yours if you dont mind. I have a 98 vw golf gl.
