straight pipe on jetta 1.9 tdi bxe motor

Post by Mr.G24 »

Hi Guys

does the below sound right, that the higher the rev range the softer or no sound at all compared to low rev range changing gears?

"i have done a decat removal(only took the insides out of the cat, so the hollow cat is still in the pipe), cut out my centre silencer and my back silencer and replaced with same size pipe inserts, so it's basically a straight pipe from turbo to the back. i have no drone sound when driving on freeway, but i have a nice dumping sound between gear changes in the low rev range as well as loud hollow woosh sound, get this sound from the front as well as out of the exhaust(think this is because of the hollow cat that is still in place maybe, not sure). as soon as it goes into higher rev ranges, the sounds are much softer."

thanks
