I have three TT exhausts and two Borlas. I'd go that way again, though the
fitment of some of the TT pipes was a bit problematic on my 8V. There was
no problem with the other two. The Borla on my 16V is quieter than the
Dynomax it replaced, but the 'max was deteriotated internally, making it
really blatty and ricey. And I'd still say my 16V isn't real quiet (insert
grin), mind you, it's more likely because of some cracks in the exhaust
manifold and the gutted cat. My Bug's nice and quiet with the Borla except
for a tasty growl on startup. I'd go with that combo again though, and
someday I'll have a Borla on Klaus too I expect. Are 16Vs ever really quiet?
