Today I installed my DC Sports Exhaust on my 2.0T
Love the sound. Propped her up on stands and crawled underneath. Kind of a pain but pretty simple.

How do you like it so far? Any sound clips? Any droning?

Definitely has drone and louder than I expected. The video clips I researched don't really give you a great reference. That being said I do still like it. When getting a performance exhaust, you have to expect that. The car is factory set up for quiet and comfortable. Performance mods come at a cost.

Except exhaust on these cars show zero gains. Replacing the Downpipe you will get some HP gains an lil throatier sounding.

Exhaust on these X gens are just for sound and looks. Sound is debatable as the 2.0T doesn’t sound like K series of old.

Yeah. I do plan on a hi flow cat and prl front pipe later down the road. But my next install is a prl Intercooler and charge pipes.

done that install twice now. Take your time so you don’t have boost leaks. Charge pipes are only really needed if your cranking higher boost or a bigger turbo.

I'm running a phearable stage 3 tune 24.5psi.

I’d do motor mounts and FMIC for the money to performance factor. Oh an Flex Fuel kit. Depends what you want.

If you want power you want a Downpipe, Flex Fuel Kit and FMIC.

I ran Phearable Stage 3 for almost a year on stock charge pipes on my 2019 2.0T. When I installed them I noticed zero difference just a tad more noise.

Think you really benefit from them is big turbo like the MHI Stage 2 or PRL P600.

Was thinking type r turbo or p600 down the line but that's far off my mind now. That exhaust drained my "fun" account lol

Replacing DP gets more than “some gains.”

Drone will stay. Sound will dampen.
