Although, I guess it should have because the GTI had an performance exhaust and a K&N already installed. Overall, I guess I'm comparing apples to oranges.


A friend told me about a story in some performance car magazine where they took two equivalent new cars and on one put performance springs and shocks, big sway bars, etc., and on the other they put a Momo steering wheel and a pair of Recaro seats. They then had several "lay" people drive them and queried as to which handled better. By a landslide, people thought the car with the steering wheel and the seats handled better.

The moral of the story: The loud exhaust and intake probably make you think the car is faster.

I believe it, I enjoy my car more because it's loud. Hey, nothing wrong with that. Don't confuse it with real performance. Easy to make a GLI loud.
