SO, i was at work and saw a GT with aftermarket tips. It was a 2002-03 DSG Convertible GT and i noticed it had the SLP Catback. I must say the SLP tips (all 18") come out at an upturned angle and look outta place as the budge upwards, but the quality is good . So, i continue working and come back outside to the parking lot and am walking out of the store where i work (Target) and i hear a loud truck type exhaust which sounds REA::Y unrefined and "trucky". I turn around expecting got see a V6 F-150 or S-10, and to my surprise its the GT! I must say i agree with the "to each is own" way of thinking, I mean had the taboo "x-pipe with Flows" setup for God's sake, so i could care less about what other people think. But it sounded really crappy and out of place. So, knowing that it has straight thru mufflers (yes i know they are really just resonators), i thought it would sound good at higher RPM's. So i waited for it to drive out on to the feeder road and get going to give it a second chance ot impress me.....Still sounded bad. Im very disappointed with the SLP catback and the way the tips turn upward. I'd definitely get Magnaflow or Bassani instead.
Cliff Notes - SLP Catback sounds like a truck and unrefined.
