- In this video we will walk you through a step-by-step install of the @unitronic Catback exhaust install on our MK8 Golf R and give you a comparison to the stock exhaust! Compared to stock this exhaust gives a much deeper tone than the high pitched factory exhaust!

For the $2000+ manufacturers are charging for minimal sound change, I'll just drop the stock and paint the tips black.
might even just do a muffler delete and keep the valves and call it a day lol
There is a video that shows the two cans (alleged resonators), right after the firewall going back, is just two empty gutted cans. Supposedly it is from the RS3, but in that platform uses resonators and/or cats. And to be fair, exhausts need to be broken in.
Any chance you can include weight & dyno comparisons?
That will more than likely be included in the next part as we did a downpipe as well!
I feel like catback exhausts for the mk8s both gti and R, it doesn’t really change the sound as much compared the the 7.5 or 7. How can we get more of a girthy or louder sound?
By changing downpipe
It's really hard to actually capture the difference on camera, unfortunately. It's definitely quite a bit louder, but definitely has a much deeper tone, and that's where the microphones don't really let it shine. But a downpipe definitely makes the biggest change!
They definitely do for the new GTI’s. They don’t have the OPFs like these Golf R’s and last gen GTI’s do.
no downpipe installed yet, correct?@@BMPTuning
@@shawnsabino3226 correct, not in this video! That video comes out soon, BUT our Pt. 3 video for the R series it does have the downpipe on it and you can hear it on the dyno. The sound is a little washed out by the rollers, but it gives a little sneak peek until the downpipe/catback combo sound video comes out!
Unitronic or milltek road + for the Gti? I’m trying to decide
Its really up to personal preference! Milltek offers a little more modularity to get the sound louder or quieter. Thats what we run on our GTI! We have a whole exhaust play list with a bunch of exhaust combinations for the GTI so checking those out might help some!
@@BMPTuning milltek road+ is louder comparatively but quieter driving normally? I need louder but also with a muffler! Don’t want to go with the basic straight piped catback!
Would this fit on a mk8 gti?
There is a GTI specific version! www.bmptuning.com/products/mbrp-street-profile-exhaust-mk8-gti?_pos=1&_psq=mk8+gti+mbrp&_ss=e&_v=1.0
Considering the cost of the system the difference is minimal. Down pipe is way to go
Depends on goals, with the DP its substantially noticeable difference, but Unitronic designed their exhaust to be more of an OEM+ option for folks, there are certainly louder and quieter exhausts on the market for the R.
@@BMPTuning Got you. That’s fair
It dosent sound too diff from stock if anything its more for the improved airflow if anything
its louder, just a lot deeper of a tone so video doesnt really show it well.
Honestly doesn’t sound any different then stock…. Are the valves actually opening because if they are then the sound is still pretty quiet 😂
Valves do function as intended, but on the R they are not open/closed only and open depending on throttle/load/mode/etc. - audio is def. harder to hear vs. in person, but the change is certainly more minimal than others on the market.
I like the sound of the OEM...but prefer the milltek and unitronic tips...😢
Oem exhaust is better 😂
Certainly sounds different in person, especially with the downpipe installed.
Hello, aftermarket is ,resonated!!!
If not mistaken, non is out of stock.
I'm sitting here like "well now it just sounds like you got a rattle."
I like the look but still way to quiet gotta take out resonator something it's no different
Stock win for me, but something must happen
It sounds like an exhaust leak with the valves closed! Definitely don’t like that.
Most valved systems sound kinda like that when closed tbf.
@@BMPTuning interesting I wonder why?
just my opinion but its sounds terrible compared to stock
sorry, but that doesn't sound good
