Default Just Installed Blue Flame - Pretty Quiet

I just picked up a blue flame for my ttqr and it came without any missing parts, no dents or anything. Seems a little odd though that they don't include the gasket. Quality is outstanding and went in easily. My only issue is it's pretty close to stock quiet.

Has anyone gone without the resonator and has this bumped up the volume a little? Also, do these open up some with time?

Default resonator will help a bit ...

I used to have a milltek on my GTI and after removing the resonator and making it straight 3" to the CB it made a nice addition sound wise.

"No gasket needed on mine (and no leaks)"

That's what we did on mine with a little sealant as well but just seemed like there should have been one. No leaks on mine either at this point.

Car feels good and seems to pull better. I still need to add a lot of things to take full benefit however. Just would have been had it been a little louder.

Yeah, I'd like to do this exhaust as well. Wonder what the next step up in loudness is? Milltech?

Default Sold my APR and put on a Miltek.........................

The Miltek is much quieter, but I also can tell from my butt dyno that my acceleration is now less than it was with the APR.

Default I just de-modded my car and selling my Blue-Flame exhaust.

I didn't use a gasket with mine and didn't have any leaks. Email if you're interested. Or its going on craigslist or ebay soon. There's no damage on it, but I have to clean it up a little.
