All of us with 4-bangers are watching this video to see whether this is an option for us. Keep at it, 'Bro

[@grind-it-out]

I’m finishing the video tomorrow. I think I have a conclusion as to what to do. Got everything finished. I’m very pleased. Hopefully tomorrow afternoon the video will be posted. I have a conflicting opinion. But both are good. I think you will like the results. Thanks again 👍🏼

I have a 2017 and i feel like this and the cold intake would sound really nice

[@grind-it-out]

Yea together they have a good sound for sure. I enjoy my intake a lot. Thanks for the comment I appreciate it. Would you consider subscribing to the channels. It really helps. Thanks again 👍🏼

@@grind-it-out Are you going to upgrade the rear sway bar?

[@grind-it-out]

I’d like too but good ones are so expensive. I can’t justify the cost. But I’d really like too. 😎

[@lodre03]

how did you get the opening distance/measurement when you reset or zero'd the caliper being opened? you should've fully closed the caliper jaws. zero it out then start your measurement from there. just curious. or maybe i'm blind?

[@grind-it-out]

I wasn’t interested in opening or inside diameter in this case. Only outside. But thanks for the information 👍🏼

[@joeluv017]

I do appreciate everything your channel gives. However, those modifications are for the
youngs. Could you join in by researching modifications of the radio? You must admit that your 2015/16 models radio unit socks!

[@grind-it-out]

Thanks for the comment. I will be adding a muffler that’s not loud like the kids. I mentioned that in the video. Also I added a subwoofer to my factory stereo. Much better. But the head unit sucks. I thought about adding a nice touch screen with Apple car play. That’s another expense 🤣. But I hear ya as far as the young folks and their loud cars. I just want to end up with moderate sound. No plans for the radio yet but I did an overview video of the subwoofer I installed. Thanks again 👍🏼

[@tyhoward8250]

What brand of muffler are you getting for your car? I may go the same route.

[@grind-it-out]

Awesome thanks for watching. Yea I’m between flowmaster flow fx. And flowmaster super 44. I may go with the flow Tx because it’s only $50. Listen to videos with it. It’s not obnoxious but sounds deep. The super 44 is nice but I’m not sure how it would work with the Passat. Whatever muffler I get I’m gonna put that on and if I don’t like the way it sounds I’m going to delete the resonator in another video so there may be two additional videos instead of one. I’m just waiting on a few parts right now and I should have a video posted hopefully by the end of the weekend or the first of the week I just need to decide what muffler.

Oh, and by the way, would you consider subscribing to the channel? It definitely helps. Thanks I appreciate you.

Thanks much 💯

My rear muffler fell off 2013 jetta and no difference in sound and almost 1000.00 for replacement muffler

[@grind-it-out]

Aftermarket mufflers are cheap. Mine was only $115.

[@astape]

I have a downpipe and air intake and refuse to change the muffler because nothing sounds good.. fart cans

[@grind-it-out]

Yea I’m experimenting with the sound. Still trying to decide. I may delete the resonator and replace that with a small thru muffler then get a performance muffler of some type to replace the muffler I deleted. Still trying to decide. Thanks for watching. I appreciate it. 👍🏼

[@astape]

Yeah I think the best sounding thus far is probably the magnaflo.. bout the best u can make a 4 cylinder sound

[@grind-it-out]

I’d looked at the flow masters and the magna flow also a Borla but still deciding
