Is it true that the GTI has exhaust piping routed near the glove box to make it sound cooler inside?

Yea something like that, it's called a "noise pipe" its just a pipe that goes to the glovebox from the engine. So you while you drive you hear the grunt of the motor and turbo spool. I have friends who took their's off and now complain their car is too quite lololol.....

Yea, crazy overengineering germans... I like the way it sounds though in my gti (not the same one as the photo I posted) makes the car sound more spirited than it actually is.

T2i4me wrote in post #13513245 Peter I like this shot, the angle, the clouds and reflections it's very balanced nice one. Hey how come when I "quote" your posts the photo does not attach? Thanks and I have no idea why it's doing that. Peter

Thanks. 09vdubgti wrote in post #13513455 Thanks everyone for the comments on my Brooklyn photo, much appreciated! I saw someone post about meet ups, is there a section on this forum where we can see if anyone in out area is doing group shooting events? Like I know there was a photo walk a month or two ago in Jersey City..... Also someone posted moving objects, here is my take. ![]() gti roller 2 ![]() gti roller 5 My flickr photostream
