Valve is controlled by the setting on the gearbox mate, I own a mk3 tts sounds loud all the time in dynamic sport 👍
Hi Kirby, I lived in Malaysia & owned a TT Mk3 (same Daytona Grey as yours ☺) and your video have inspired me recently to "take the plunge" just earlier today at my local exhaust shop. And so far I have not regretted a single bit, the exhaust note is marvellous! 😆 I used a 2.5" SUS pipe to match with the OEM size. I leave my drive select mode in "Dynamic", the other valve is permanently opened and overall the exhaust note sounds much better. It's not too loud inside the cabin too.
You can control the exhaust valve on the TT really easily. It opens and closes based off whether one of the pins is connected to ground or not. So basically you have 3 pins in the plug, two are for the power (+ and -), and the middle one is the signal cable. All you have to do is divert that signal cable to your own cable which goes to ground with a switch in between. Then you can switch the valve on and off whenever you like.
Immediately after buying my 2022 tts, I had the large “ suitcase” muffler in the rear of the car and had some black stainless tips to match the black optic package I’d ordered for the car. I regretted it as soon as it was complete. Sure it sounded great under throttle, but that drone😬. Traded it for my 2021 TRRS, going to leave the exhaust stock on this one. Lovely color on your TT👍
Sounds better for sure, I'm not that knowledgeable on Audi's but you may be able to pick up a used performance Exhaust system for the TTS (it may be a standard part on the TTS ? ) that may fit yours ?
Obviously it would be a great option if the TTS exhaust system is of a "high flow" configuration, bigger bore exhaust & better flowing & designed exhaust manifold etc. Just a idea 💡 😉
if he would do that, he wouldn't save £1000's
@@RedfoxQc I never suggested he would ?
But he would save a considerable amount as to the alternative option of a Full custom Exhaust & headers (Aftermarket Scene) if he decided later for a little more performance & even better exhaust note.
I have the MK2. You're getting me thinking about mods again!
The MK2 has a great aftermarket scene around it 😁
Thanks Andy, that's all I needed to know. I will do the same on my TT MK3.
What would it sound like with “back box delete” too? Thanks
Had a rea delete on my Mk2. The difference is huge. Especially the cold start. There is no need for any other exhaust mods.
Hey Andy, for the engine cover mod, what items did you have to buy? The Grommet clips seems to be the same for all corners but there are short and long poles. Trying to do exactly what you are intending to on this vid. Would appreciate the heads up. Thank you,
Great mod it sounds a lot better now on a cold start and when moving off.
Res delete doesnt make it louder, just makes the tone nicer. Thats the reason its a legal mod in the UK
Andy have you done this prior stage 1 or post? I have stage 1 and thinking about the air intake and middle res delete. I'm looking to stay away from droning. Any advice would be great 🙏
Andy, you can get a second hand mig welder very cheap and teach yourself. I went the traditional way but mig is only a semi skill most of the time. Or maybe a cold welder, but mig is nice and easy for you
My A4 B9 has the same 4 pot breaks I'm gonna powder coat them blue add the s logo paired with dimpled and slotted discs it would look so nice.
Sound matches the right foot a bit better now
Hey Andy did you remove both the res or just the one, thank you.
Just one 👍🏼
Hi Andy.
Did the tts engine cover fit properly on your tt with the extra brackets?
I phoned your mates at your garage to get some bits done hope speak soon.
Thank you good channel
Andy i saw a vid u on youtube saying about LONG TING. I saw it today... made me laugh. Ive just brought the bike . Escute. Its on order.
Andy i must admit you got me curious trying it on my own TT MK3 😉
So you basically removed the center one with a straight pipe. When you drive the car with steady speed,lets say 6th gear 70m/h , is it noisy inside the cabin? I'm very interested.
Hi, yes thats right, remove the first resonator and fit a straight pipe. No it's not droney at all, the noise increased a tiny bit when cruising but the whole thing makes the car feel more alive! It sounds great on first startup and crawling around when parking etc. Then when you open it up it really screams! I'm fitting a 4 inch downpipe with sports cat this week!
@@andykirby thx for the help mate. Any suggestions regarding the diameter of the centre pipe that you installed and replaced the resonator? Or just a regular size to match the rest?
Are those ttrs wheels? What size?
I live close to a main road and get a lot of wankers with loud exhausts.
Me too.
@@andykirby I’m not really knocking you I like your channel just can't see the point in it.
@@Brummiejohn200 Yeah, not a lot of point. I like a car to be quite and fast. If there is more extra noise than extra power then it's stupid.
They're just a minority of the traffic but they can make life a misery, especially throughout the summer. Very directly and negatively effects peoples physical and mental health. Much higher rate of high blood pressure heart disease with people who live near loud roads. Yeah but do what you want until if affects others, except silly loud vehicles can only effect everyone around unless your down the proper circuit with a proper sound bank around it. Spend all that money on silly impractical, low utilitarian value vehicles, yet cheep out when it comes to getting a track membership and f**k off to go drive round and round it.
@@wayland7150 yeah but the car is fkin fast so it fits well. If it was a slow fiesta then no, but an EA888 with 350bhp in a car that weighs 1300kg its good
Andy Andy Andy you are a legend mate I love your video of your car all until the last bit by had to rewind it and have a look at that last shot yucky pants were made for a reason lol keep up the good work mate
🤣
Hey mr kirby my escute is in the post! WHayy its just right for an older feller like me.
Enjoy your channel.
I saw this video and I deleted the 2 resonator (resonator and a silencer to be exact) in the middle. It sounds sooooo good now. Dsg farts are louder and pure loudness after 2k rpm. As for the drone I have loud enough music anyway when I am on motorway so I dont care but there is hardly any drone anyway.
Hi.. what the diameter and thickness of that stainless steel pipe u
You used
Did I pass you on the A127 the other day?, and your welcome to do a review/test drive on my stage 1 TTS :)
No, I wasn't over that way! Cool! We might arrange a meet soon around the Essex Hertfordshire area!
@@andykirby Yeah I'm based in Essex :)
Sounds good Andy 👍
Hey Andy keen to know if this would still pass an MOT without first res
Yes passes no problem. It doesn't change emissions.👍🏼
@@andykirby thanks
My diesel TT would not benefit from that 🤣
I've always said Diesel doesn't belong in a sports car.
coolant looks low - make sure the silica bag is removed from the expansion bottle google it you will understand why - check for leaks at the front thermostat housing - very common
Nothing on Google maybe Google block all content about leak 🤦
@@MtechGarage the reference is to google why remove silica bag from expansion tank
best end up video picture.😃🤦😍
Has this TT the GPF/OPF?
No it doesn't.
Isn't the resonator there for an engine breathing reason? At particular revs, the resonator basically helps keep the incoming charge (air fuel) from beginning to exit into the exhaust when valve timing overlap is happening, a bit like how an expansion pipe resonates on a two stroke engine.
No just to mute noise.
A resonator delete can also reduce your engine efficiency. It affects the back pressure of the exhaust gases, which may amount to more fuel consumption. So, a resonator delete can give your vehicle a slight increase in horsepower.
@@MtechGarage hang on, surely a less efficient engine will produce less bhp for the same amount of fuel being burnt. Back pressure at the right time would increase efficiency. Valve timing overlap is the same regardless of engine rpm, whereas exhaust tune (frequency) varies over rev range.
@@yodab.at1746 I had a V4 Ford years ago and the silencer blew its center out sounded like a race car but pulled like crap, as soon as I fitted a replacement it went like a rocket. So yes definitely less efficiency with straight pipe.😉👍👍
The only way to really know would be to get it on a dyno which I plan to do next.
Andy, can you tell me the diameter of the pipe please? 2.5 or 3 inch? What is the approximate length?
It's 2.5 inch and about 39cm but you'd need to measure it after you cut the res out.
@@andykirby - Thank you so much ! Now, I can order the right stuff. 👌
Sounds nice mate, get that cat out and mapped to stage 2!
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Like the car Andy and colour. It's like the audio R8 my favourite car audi. My uncle that's all he bought and the shape difference every time. Like the sound and calipers good choice and colour. I think that system is amazing like you say your saving money which is good. It's a car that looks great at all angles. Do you like the sound of the audi R8 I uesd to watch the add on utube where its on rolling Road. What a sound. You shoud drive to a long tunnel and open it up you will be amazed at sound great video as usual
Thanks Colin, yeah I love the R8 too, amazing car and sounds incredible. The TT is like a mini R8 😁 You are right about these cars looking great from all angles, that's one of the main reasons I bought mine. Its sad to think there probably won't be cars like this again.
@@andykirby thanks Andy it's true cars change every year but your car it's a shape that will still look good in coming years. I find I'm in my seventies when I was younger I had 50 cars car mad everyone I bought I had to change shape with RS kits and wide wheels. In them days you could do your own mateince like engine out and do valves pistons ect now on some cars you can't take spark plugs out. Another thi g I've never seen what we called a banger every car now seems to be new to look at. I like ammerican cars Because you can still muke on like the old days. You have a good eye for cars you will in time buy another car good luck with this car hpoe it serves you well. Watch out for these jealous guys on the road today thanks again
Does anyone know if this mods is also appreciable to an Audi TT (2019) with OPF which is extremely quieter? Has anyone already done this? my only fear is that I'll go and cut that piece but then the difference will be minimal...
thanks for every answers
I was going to ask this, have you done any mods to your exhaust since posting that question?
@@adambrown743 Not yet, I installed a direct terminal that goes from that point to the end, but the car suffers too much from resonance, also the sound from the outside is appreciated but from the inside which is soundproofed not so much, so I'm afraid that by removing only that piece the difference will only be noticeable from the outside, risking having an annoying vibration inside..
the only way to have a real better sound for our model is to remove the opf, but you have to fool the sensors and remap the car
the straight terminal exhaust, I removed it after two days for that problem (resonance)
Yeah it’s not ideal is it, I’m guessing removing the OPF will affect MOT etc, plus I’ve got extended Audi warranty so I’m guessing it could affect that.
Was you getting the vibration inside the car then?
Am tempted to change my TT to this setup. I love the car but the exhaust sounds a bit anaemic. What sort of money are we talking to cut and replace with a stainless steel section. Loving your TT vids by the way, keep it up 👍
Hi, yeah like most newer cars these days the sound is muted and everything just sounds restricted. Any good garage should charge 150-200 for a resonator delete!
Have you checked out the latest stage 2 videos?😁
Yep those new vids have pushed me over the edge and I have the res delete booked in for Monday! There’s a longlife stainless steel exhaust branch near me with great reviews so fingers crossed will sound the biz 🙏
Got mine done in the end. Not a massive difference but def gives it a sportier note esp when accelerating hard so I would say it was worth doing. If you’ve got the money and you want a big upgrade in sound I’d say go straight to a stainless steel exhaust setup but for a few hundred this is def worth it. Good work sir 👍 oh and no drone!
Might need to speak with them to do a sports cat on mine Andy
Yeah man!
Sounds great
Could've saved yourself all of the dosh by leaving it alone! 😂
Ponce!
HEAR what it sounds like not SEE what it sounds like.
Perfectly acceptable to say SEE as in to 'experience' or 'witness' what it sounds like. The English language is complex and there's lots of exceptions depending on dialect etc.
@@andykirby Poor use of language.
@@wayland7150 you really need to get a life 🤣🤣
@@MrThegreenfrog1981 I feel what you're pissing.
Hi I'm trying to purchase the sabvoton 72200 controller on your website but I want more pictures first Jason has sent me some on email but it won't let me open them can you get him to send me them on WhatsApp
I will ask him
@@andykirby thankyou he has sent me the measurements now and told me what throttles could be included
