kennymx71 Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 hi iv had a 1.0l lupo for a couple years and iv lowered it and fitted some wider wheels but i couldn't see the point in making it any faster. but i just bought a gti lupo about a month ago. its completly standard but will be getting kw coilovers and some wide wheels (not sure what yet) i want to modify the engine to get it a bit quicker and the first thing will be the exhaust system. so any ideas? iv been looking at the scorpion cat back system so if anyone has any reviews of them would be useful. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnglandSoul Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 (edited) My girlfriend has jan speed on hers and it sounds really nice I've been banned from having tht on mine so think I'm getting a kam racing at some point. I've got a piper cross induction kit on mine ATM and it sounds really nice. Just lacing the exhaust noise as well.

Kam Racing Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 They are certainly worth it vs a standard cat. much less restrictive.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnglandSoul Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 The first video is what made me think about getting the kam racing exhaust, the second vid has just made my decision harder as not sure which to go for now, im not to bothered about top end speed really just want a good pull through all the gears.

Kam Racing Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 (edited) How much are they for a gti from you?Its only available as part of the manifold design rather than a stand alone pipe that would fit the standard manifold. The combination of the down pipe and either a 100 cell or 200 cell cat comes to £765.88 inc vat.http://www.kamracing.co.uk/car-tuning/volkswagen/vw-lupo/exhaust/exhaust-manifold/vw-lupo-1-6-16v-gti-kam-racing-manifold-cat-pipe.htmlThe catback exhaust is from £444.91 inc vathttp://www.kamracing.co.uk/car-tuning/volkswagen/vw-lupo/exhaust/exhaust-systems/vw-lupo-1-6-16v-gti-kam-racing-exhaust-system.html Edited May 8, 2014 by Kam Racing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kam Racing Posted May 8, 2014 Report Share Posted May 8, 2014 we designed the manifold to optimise the primary pipe lengths. and this meant we couldn't have a connector in the same place as standard for connecting the cat.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jahre Posted May 17, 2014 Report Share Posted May 17, 2014 Does the Kam Racing exhaust come with a certificate that I can get MOT in Germany? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
