The numbers speak for themselves. The Slip-On exhaust system made of high quality stainless steel, with two mufflers and unique tail pipes (titanium or carbon fiber) developed especially for the GTI, offers an additional power of 4 HP and torque of 6 Nm. Additions or more precisely losses can also be seen on the scale, because the homologated Slip-On exhaust system is 3 kilograms lighter than the stock exhaust. If you buy a system with a link pipe, the weight difference comes to 6,5 kilograms. The Slip-On improves responsiveness of the GTI’s 4-cylinder engine and particularly improves the power between 1.800 rpm and 3.300 rpm – in the most often used range. It is difficult to refrain from pushing the GTI’s 4-cylinder engine towards the red section on the rpm indicator, because not only does the exciting sporty sound (even race sound when using the link pipe) cause an adrenalin rush, so does the increase of power, which is particularly noticeable from 4.500 rpm on.
