seat_mike Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 Evening peeps,Just wondering if anyone has the above system on their GTi or Sport?If so is it any good?Any help much appreciated.Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
db Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 (edited) I had one on my GTi, that now belongs to Alex (fatttty on here). It was a great system, the power gain that it gave was quite noticeable, but it was no where near as loud as i thought it was going to be. It's over all a quite subtle affair and has a nice metallic rasp to it, more so when it's cold surprisingly! It's a good system though, really really good quality to them.Here's the video: Youtube Video -> Edited April 19, 2008 by db Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 Its ran in 2WD on the rollers. The Haldex system is disabled as running in 4WD can give strange results Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
db Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 As joe said, running in 2WD will give more accurate figures, plus you get a fly wheel figure as when running in 4WD it's impossible to calculate drivetrain losses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SC02 FFF Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 im sooo buying one of them full systems Does the full system come with a replacment cat? as it has no info on site? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
db Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 No, the system is cat back. You'd have to source manifold and cat from somewhere else. If it was me and i was doing it again i'd wait for the Janspeed manifold and source a sports cat from anywhere but i'd look at 200 cell ones.

Spoorsy Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 my exhaust has just started blowing so i am now thinkin about getting a performance system number 1 on my list that i want is a bastuck, just got one question tho.......the full system? will it pass a MOT?if it does then its all good and i will probably go for it.cheers spoorsy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They only do a Cat-back.As long as your lambda probes are in good condition and you have at least a 200 cell cat, then yes, it should fly through the MOT.

Bastuck DO NOT make a true full system. What they call a full system, is merely a Cat-Back system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pro3mark Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 Not that i'm aware of, Janspeed where working on it, but i think they just got bored...Best bet if you want a full system is custom, and as you're near Newcastle, i've heard a lot of posotive comments of http://www.aas-exhausts.co.uk/The Bastuck is overpriced now anyway (not the advertised price either) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfbr Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 false advertising tbh lolis there anyone that does a "full system" for a 1.4 lupo?It's all down to different manufacturers terminology.In some exhaust manufacturers opinions, you should never have to replace a cat/downpipe, thus in there world a full system is everything behind the cat. Where other companies where replacement of Downpipes/Catalysts is common play, they consider a full system a Downpipe, Cat and Cat-Back system.

Emz Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 I'm looking into getting a Bastuck Cat-Back exhaust and then i'm just going to get a full custom exhaust system made.. probs go to TSR where my bf got his done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoorsy Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 i went to aas-exhaust because i had heard good things about themgot a price but i was lookin at £700 for a propper full system, front pipe with sport cat, then all the way back all the way back.............unfortunatley i can't afford this atm so it looks like it is just going to be a standard replacement for me lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 Yeah i rang them up a few months back regarding an exhaust, think they quoted me £440 for a cat back system, then extra for sports cat.Wouldn't go anywhere near my raceland mani though, so that would leave me with a problem, cant exactly be driving without a mani! Rang powerflow and they quoted £250 for a cat back, £150 for the sports cat and they said they would fit the mani, but i would need to go in and get the car up on the ramp so they can see what the crack is, due to the cat being joined to the mani as one peice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pro3mark Posted August 12, 2009 Report Share Posted August 12, 2009 AAS will build a custom manifold for £400, however, they will have the car for a few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
