RE: Exhaust systems and Performance Chip

I don't think you can ever ask a "which is best?" question without   
getting different answers. The Remus is definitely a nice system, but   
it's mucho $$$. Don't know about sound though. I've heard both the   
Techtonics and the Autotech (courtesy of Uncle Wally) exhausts, and I   
like the sound of the Autotech better-very deep and mellow. If it means   
anything, the Autotech has a big ass 3.5" polished tip. I'd prefer to   
have a tip that looks closer to stock, like the Techtonics, and if the   
Autotech had the dual tip design, I'd get it right away. I'll probably   
end up getting either the Techtonics or the Borla twin from New   
Dimensions. As for power gains, don't expect much (3-5 hp) as the stock   
one (Liestritz) is already pretty good. You may even lose some low end   
power.

You won't find one list member (or on the GTI-VR6 list either) who   
doesn't love the Garrett chip. For more info, visit:

Your ECU warranty will be shot (damn those tamper-resistant screws), but   
with the right dealer your 10/100k will be fine.

Hey,

     What's the best exhaust system for the VR6 Jetta?  I'm contemplating
getting a Remus.  Does anyone have any comments or suggestions?  I want   
cat
back system that is very quiet but gives me good performance and   
preferably
has a nice big single tip.  Also, does anyone have any prices?

     I'd also like to get a performance chip, like an Autotech Q-Chip or   
a
Neuspeed P-Chip.  I'm concerned that this might void my 10-year   
powertrain
warranty.
