Almost straight pipe and sound is not thrilling, like in modela without GPF, its better, but much quieter because of GPF...

I added carbon fiber tips as well, a bit dirty on the photo

I wonder if your new exhaust system would comply with the UK testing regime ie: annual MOT and emissions testing.

However you have caught my attention and would like to find out more about the final version once it comes to market
I will make a comparison video, emission wise it should be ok because GPF and catalyst are in place.

Does anyone know if the Polo GTI steering wheel is the same size as the MK7 GTI/R?

Looking at some paddle extensions for the Polo. Been told if the steering wheel size is the same as the MK7 they'll fit.

Cheers :)

My GTI+ steering wheel is exactly the same as my Golf R's, except the alloy centre and spokes are painted black gloss on the R, with blue stitching. Same size.

Hi all,

Curious - alot of car review videos show the GTi to have quite a burbly exhaust sound with some pops and bangs - does anyone know how this now compares with the GTi's now fitted with the GPF?

Yes, I took a video of my stock car, much quieter... you can hear some pops but very quiet, all because of GPF. Made catback exhaust, almost straight pipe, still very gentle... I’m waiting for someone to crack this ECU and I’m throwing original downpipe out!

I'm sad to hear this. Just got my polo GTI yesterday but I haven't had enough time to notice if this is true or not. It is leased so I can't even make any changes by my self either
