    For exhaust.
    I'm SUPER partial to a catless 4" Trackslag & AWE Track. It's loud, but not nearly as obnoxious as your current setup (sorry, not sorry lol).
    This combo sounds amazing and rich/deep in it's tones. It's what I run on my car. It can be quiet when you want, or scream. Best of both worlds.

    • @ChrisFromKenya
      @ChrisFromKenya  2 роки тому

      Yeah that’s definitely kind of the setup I’m gonna go for to clean it up and go for a little bit more of a sleeper sound!
      No offense taken man it’s virtually a straight pipe with a high flow res in the catback 😂😂 just wanted to send it for the boyz and the channel

      @mk7t472 2 роки тому

      I have the same setup on my gli, I used to use a unitronic downpipe, and for some reason it is less raspy with the catless downpipe and it has way less rasp than the unitronic downpipe or the Apr one I had, rasp wise Apr was the most rasp, then unitronic was a huge reduction in rasp and then the trackslag was a bit less rasp but the volume went up on wot a little bit

    How long did your stock clutch last ? I have a 16 6mt w stock clutch and scared to go stage 1 and stage 2 because of clutch slip

    • @ChrisFromKenya
      @ChrisFromKenya  2 роки тому

      So truthfully I started slipping the first week I got the Mk7 because I got a DP and immediately went stage 2 so I just babied it for a year then finally got and upgraded clutch. So the answer is it will happen sooner or later really no matter what man.
      I did my clutch and figured out that it’s the springs that fail and just can’t hold much more than stock torque numbers.

    hey chris quick question, how long have you had the tune and what mileage are you at, so at what mileage did you get it at and what mileage are you at now, also have you had any issues with it, when I got my eqt stage 2 I was getting a bunch of knock but i suspect thats because I dont have the upgraded spark plugs, if you had any troubles with knock let me know what you did to fix it or if you still do get any knock can you let me know how much you get, sorry for the long question english is hard

    • @ChrisFromKenya
      @ChrisFromKenya  2 роки тому +2

      Hahaha no worries man I do the same thing trying to explain anything!
      So I bought the car at 49K miles
      Then bought catless DP and plugs at 50k
      Then flashed EQT stage 2 at 51k even though I didn’t have my intercooler yet
      And have been running it all the way until now at 101k miles man
      I never ran into the knock issues because I didn’t plugs and gapped them to .024 with a step colder plugs and have literally had no issues what so ever!!
      Hopefully that helps alittle bit man I’m terrible at explaining things 😂

    Have anyone here that owns a MK7 GTI been having cylinder specific misfires (mine is cylinder 2&3 and also random cylinder misfire code)? Are they normal? I have a 3" catless downpipe paired to an ECS Tuning 3" catback. I have upgraded APR coilpacks and Audi RS7 NGK spark plugs with EQT stage 2 tune on 93 octane.

    • @ChrisFromKenya
      @ChrisFromKenya  2 роки тому +1

      It’s pretty common for specific mis fires, easiest answer would be checking ground wires for all the coil packs, checking plug gap specs for who your tuned by or coil packs actually making a good connection to the plugs themselves! That’s the best answer I have homie I hope it helps!! 🔥

Lets me be quiet and run the stock muffler through the neighborhood and in mornings and with the press of a button it switches to an exhaust delete whenever i want.
