i wonder if you could weld something together that was like the apr rsc. that exhaust had minimal to 0 drone for my vr. until i owned the exhaust, i never understood why it was soo much more expensive than all the other brands.

I had a Magnaflow on the Cabrio, it had the drone at 1800rpm, Sarah complained and I replaced the muffler

Well gf was home for the weekend, took her all of 2 minutes to noticed I had installed exhaust lol.

Her comments "It's noisy, I don't like it, when are you taking it off?" to my reply, its not coming off? She complained for a few more minutes, then the rest of the weekend - not a peep! Guess she likes being driven around haha.

The droan at the 2k mark still does bug me a bit, wish I could get rid of that. Any ideas? lol Aside from not use magnaflow?

The rest of the time it is glorious and sounds fantastic! Hopefully this weekend I will get some sound clips with Paytons Go Pro!

Well completed about 1000km with the new exhaust, sway bar, and puck mount the car is a dream to drive now! Droans a little bit at the 2k mark, more so when it's hot. But overall pretty happy with it. Need me some tunnel's to drive though, or just downtown haha.

The HPA black puck mount is definitely worth every penny though, shifts 100 times smoother and no more sloppy tranny. And the sway bar has really settled down the back end, so all in all it was money well spent!

Busy day at Dubsport yesterday...



Exhaust, 034 Rear Sway Bar, HPA Black Puck Mount, Oil Change, Blown rear wheel bearing (ffuuu) haha

Car is like new again! The Magnabro's is a tad louder than I was expecting though.

See how it is on the road trip to Calgary this weekend!

And now for the trek back home after an awesome weekend! Hit the road early after dropping the girlfriend off for school!



Nice sunny day for a drive home, sure can't complain for how much the coast usually gets rain right?



Before I could really make some miles though I had a pit stop to make!



TURBO TIME!!!!

Kidding. I wish. Only shy a few thousand grand. haha But I did get a tour of the shop, doing a lot of cheap TDI conversions there. Picked up 6 puck mounts and got back on the road!

Amazing view to start off into the Rockies. Love it every time.





Tunnel!!!! God I need exhaust... so quiet. Too Quiet!!



Making decent time, love driving this car, so comfy.



Train!!



Amazing how barren an area that has a bad forest fire gets.



Then back into the lush stuff!



And pit stop!!





Ahead you see the impressive Mount Robson, Kicking myself for not getting a picture of my car with it, passed a perfect spot too. :(



Endless amazing views for the entire drive.



Picked up a friend along the way, Jetta TDI - had some work done to it, but still fairly stock me thinks.



Got stuck behind a cop for way to long stuck going way to slow for some time. So I took another pit stop for more pitures!





Back in Alberta - can ramp up the speed again finally.



Hit a milestone along the way!



And a mere 11.5 hours later and a total of 2600km I made it back home safe and sound!



Still light out even, at 9:30 pm.

Hope you all enjoy!!
