Audi TT Mk2 8J 3.2 V6 Quattro Tampa Mod exhaust mod - how to

[@jakefye9805]

Great to see this done. Been debating doing the same on my A3 3.2 but haven't been able to find anyone who has used the whole Magnaflow resonator. The true Tampa mod requires you to cut it down to around 7" and weld it back together, but I think the full length gives a much nicer, deeper tone. Great work!!

[@TheRealKelpy]

Yes, you are right. I did consider a cut and shut, but felt it best to leave it as is. Prefer the sound, anyway. Thank you for the nice comment.

[@martini3642]

I used the whole resonator on 2008 Audi TT VR6- 10 hp gains- Sounds Great.

[@anonamas4261]

Maybe its the mic but that sounds way louder than mine, I also used the same setup and took out the front pre-resonator.

[@TheRealKelpy]

Probably because the mic is mounted under the lip of the boot-lid, right above the 2 pipes. Yes, took out the pre-res and there was only one res where often there is 2 , so took that out as well.

@@TheRealKelpy Did u experience droning after cutting 1 pre resonator?

I think I now own this exact TT - @TheRealKelpy are you Lechlade way?

[@TheRealKelpy]

Is it A Jaguar? Ish. If so, yes.

[@davesurf20]

@@TheRealKelpy Haha! Yes it is! I’d noticed the Powerflow mod and randomly this video popped up on KZbin this morning! Thanks for the headunit, I’ve tried swapping it over but couldn’t get any power to it for some reason!

[@TheRealKelpy]

@@davesurf20 Hope you like it. I loved it but I'm too old now. Getting in and out, and the hard ride. Yes, the head unit was in there but I had no luck either so put the original back in.

[@omsam8930]

any drone when cruising or low rev ?

[@TheRealKelpy]

No, not at all. That's why I went for this rather than proprietary systems.

[@Mad.Productions]

How much did it cost? Can you do that at any garage?

[@TheRealKelpy]

All in, about 200 quid. Yes, if they are willing. Independents are best.

[@castilloj314]

How do you like it ?

[@TheRealKelpy]

Love it! ::-)

[@nahcuh9140]

I just test drove a 3.2 TT and the garage said they thought the exhaust was stock but I don’t think sounded it. The tips looked stock so I was thinking they might’ve done this. Do you think yours sounds like the one in this video I took: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpioe6Bpe7l6jKM

[@TheRealKelpy]

I must say, it does sound very much the same, doesn't it. You should be able to see under the car, and use my pictures as a guide.

[@nahcuh9140]

@@TheRealKelpy unfortunately it sold so I won’t get a chance to check it! I just wanted to know because I’d like to do it to mine when I get one! Does it drone at all?

[@TheRealKelpy]

@@nahcuh9140 Not at all. That's the reason I went for this mod as opposed to a lot of the proprietary cat back replacements.
