TT 225
Back in March I bought an Audi TT 225. Haven't really kept a progress thread about it but I posted on TT-Forum last week about and exhaust modification I was looking into and I thought I may aswel copy it over to CS seeing as I've sort of lost touch with it. The TT has only had a V6 rear valance fitted, Forge007p diverter valve and Wakbox (drilled and slotted airbox) before last week. Enjoy.

I posted a while ago about about having a back box chop. I bought a spare exhaust from a guy who worked at pipeworx so i picked it up last week and sneaked it into work to have a little play. Heres where I'm upto;
Perfect fit.
Grinded the top off to reveal this mess.
Began to remove the glass fibre, horrible stuff!
All glass fibre removed.
I plan to remove most of the pipework and narrow the airflow to a single chamber but I'm quite busy at the moment. I would of liked it to be on the car by Monday as I'm booked in at RS-Tuning for a Remap.

I've been really busy lately at work and with college so I'll just post a couple of pictures so you can all see where I'm going with this. Enjoy!
Cleaned! (sort of)
Pipes cut out both sides.
Blanks cut out of stainless to block the four holes that wont be used.
Holes Tigged up on one side only. It was a real pain to get in at the back of the box, not my best welding ever but it was really quite hard considering the contents are made out of 1mm stainless. I had to weld at about 45Amps so it took me ages.
I then opened up the mid box to see what was inside, I was thinking of doing a straight through pipe but it might be too loud. Whatever I decide, at least everyone has now seen what's inside these things.
I also had a Remap at RS-Tuning in Leeds on Monday. The lads there flashed my ECU to remove the really s**t map that was already on the car (I didnt realise there was one on - it made 212.2bhp). Then they installed a standard map and it made 204.4bhp. He then gave me the option of a REVO or his own map to which I let him install his own map on (as he had done with both of my mates Meganes). The results were 250.4bhp with 295ft*lb. Very happy!

P.s. Kris86 and johnbryan45 are the Megane owners for those of you who know them.
