Here is a pic of the OEM "choker" exhaust system, which actually works pretty darn well ,but is no match for the Techtonics straight through system. The original inside diameter measured with a vernier caliper is 2.0 inches, the new Techtonics Tuning system measures exactly 2.5":
Here is a pic from the huge OEM VW catalytic convertor on back:
Here is the hookup to the cat-back through the center support:
Here is a shot of the super nice straight through Borla stainless steel muffler with 2.5 inch inside diameter with a rated flow of 644 cfm (over twice what the turboed TDI is capable of generating!
):
Total cost for the entire stainless steel system shipped and installed was $529.00. An aluminized steel version is available for about $305.00. My 98 NB TDI will soon have this same system installed on it with Techtonics wicked upswept "Baja Bug' stinger exhaust tip. BTW, the Bug is a diesel rocket too, set up the same as the Jetta!
Simply a most impressive and first class system that will last for the next million miles producing outstanding torque, horsepower, and economy.
Don't boost me up Scotty! There are intelligent turbocharged Volkswagens down here after all!
