1995 Passat GLX VR6 Exhaust Repair

Mark 21 February 2005 08:06:53
 Does anyone have good advice on replacing the exhaust system (center
and rear mufflers) on my 1995 Passat GLX VR6?

The car is 10yrs old, 150K miles in a northern (salty) climate and the
corrosion has finally taken its toll. I am not interested in
performance exhausts. I would like the car to perform and sound as it
did from the factory.

I am considering purchasing the center and rear muffler from an online
parts source and installing it myself. However I am afraid I may get
parts that do not fit exactly right. I am handy but I do not have air
tools or a welder. I can cut with a hacksaw and bolt new parts
together.

If anyone has had a good experience or a bad one with specific parts
stores or brands I sure would appreciate a heads-up!


Thanks in advance!

I did a full TT exhaust on my '91 GTI with no special tools. The system
after the cat wasn't too hard to deal with. Before the cat was another
story (I did a manifold swap and downpipe swap too but it doesn't sound like
you're doing that). Fit of the TT system was great.

However it has more sound than a stock exhaust. Primarily lows.

 Please forgive my ignorance on this subject. by "TT" do you mean
Techtonics? The one that germanautoparts.com­ sells? Do you know if
this would be any louder at 75 mph than the stock exhaust? I can tell
from the picture that this exhaust system is quite different from
stock. It has no front muffler and the center muffler is smaller.

Does Anyone have good/bad experiences with having this system replaced
by a dealer with "oem" parts? cost?

does anyone know a good source to buy stock replacement parts aside
from the dealers?

thanks!
