question

I have a borla cat back exhaust(whole system) on my 1.8T. If I get a TT BPV would I feel a significant horsepower gain? Is it worth getting?

No gains unless your current valve isn't holding pressure right.

Simply put, it's not a power adder, it's a power keeper.

question on the Borla

How do you like it ?? Did you notice a significant power gain ? I"ve got the Upsolute chip on mine and the gain was huge,, next step is exhaust and am trying to decide which one.

i have the borla and a tt valve....

a dv valve dosent actually give any added horsepower tho. but it is stronger than stock and is very much worth the $$.

Re: question on the Borla

i just got it in the car on friday and i love it. it sounds so nice. the only thing i dont like is around 3500ish in 5th on the highway it is a bit loud the noise dies down above and below that speed, but i think it will smothen out a bit once it settles into itself. i dont have a chip yet but i am getting one on friday so i will update you then if you like but i did notice a difference in power on the car for sure. all in all i think the borla is great especially for what it costs.
