Probably one of the best sound comparisons I’ve seen/heard on KZread for a muffler delete. Well done! I never thought they made a bit of difference until I saw your video.

I agree w you 100%

If you have a cat back system or a performance downpipe, you'll hear the turbo sounds. If you add a turbo muffler delete to it, you'll hear the fluttering even more. Just cruise down the street with the windows down when it's quiet. Doing like 10-15 mph and it's noticeable

It spools much louder that means its breathing better good job

turbo is a tad more noticeable. probably more noticeable under load

I was thinking bout doin the Neuspeed discharge pipe with thier turbo muffler delete, don’t know if it’s worth it or not

On the spool down the whistle is way louder im sure you can hear the up spool going through gears is louder to

Definitely notice that it adds to the overall sound the engine makes now!

I think the test is to be done while driving. I notice on my my Passat the turbo does not pull while in park. It only kicks in while driving at around 3k.

yeah in neutral it doesn't seem to make the noise but when in gear its a lot more noticeable

This comment is late but can always be useful for new people. If you adjust these little things the people will hold more air because the air box can suck in more air so you will hear more noise from the exhaust system.

Thank you for this video. I have moderate experience to harder mechanic jobs and I’d say with that experience, this is a 5-6 out of 10 on difficulty for anyone considering trying. Torx bits, Allen keys with the rounded end and flex joints for the socket extensions made it go more smoothly. Took my son and I about 2 hours to complete this along with the turbo inlet elbow. Use a small amount of grease to keep the turbo delete o-ring in place while installing. I’ll add that the turbo sound and whoosh is more noticeable while standing in front of the car with the hood down

Great video 👌

There has been many flow tests done on the turbo muffler, and they perform almost identical to aftermarket. That made no difference in any performance what so ever, they might make a slight louder noise on the turbo but my cars 3 inch turbo back I wouldn’t hear a difference anyway lol staying stock is the way for me Ty!

Quick question. Why would your first mod be a turbo inlet pipe on this car before any kind of intake or even pod filter setup?? Typically don’t see inlet pipes until past stage 2??

Well I started ordering stuff right when i got the car and I saw a lot of owners added the inlet pipe so I just went for it.

Been debating installing one of these on my 09 CC 2.0T. Might just take off the factory turbo muffler and seal the vents and reisntall it for a quick test to see if there is a difference

Incredible Work 👍

I have a 2021 MK7 GLI. Getting ready to install this tomorrow along with the Turbo inlet pipe and CAI. I have the Stage1 Tune from #Integrated Engineering and already making over 310hp and 368lb ft of torque. That's with the stock intake.

Is difficult to say, I think is better when driving. All engine noises amplify if test running in the garage.

The after has a whistle after the blow off is all I can hear different.

If you have ears like mine this is a perfect example of the muffler delete. I can hear the difference for sure!

I think there is a small difference, when you do it at idle. Does it make any difference when driving?

The sound difference might be there, it's just such a small change if any

Hey man I think it might make the boost sound louder, i'm pretty sure you don't build any boost in park but when you drive usually in 2000rpm range you hit boost, if you have an intake for instance which you don't in this video you'd here a wooshing almost whistling noise when boost hits and it would probably be louder with the delete, i don't know though as i don't have the delete but just a thought.

@firehawk97

Exactly. Drive audio before and after with pressure in the system will truly show the difference. The fact it affects the BOV sound in park is a good indicator though. Bet the difference is a lot more under boost and engine load!

A little bit. I put one on my MKVII and i really did not hear much of a difference It sure was a pain for something that does not make much of a difference. BOV and Cold Air Intake make the car sound good without the turbo muffler delete. I don't think its worth the money. Live and learn.

Much the same!, maybe a help with other upgrades!

There is a small difference. I just put one on my 1.8tsi and it sounds better now as well.

Litle sound wistle at the end. But any horsepower with that mod bro?

@ColoredinLight

Probably not by itself

There's not really much difference in sound and I doubt there is a measurable gain in HP or torque. But the value of increasing the air flow with all the little air flow mods you can do is to prepare the car to take full advantage of a software tune beyond stage 1.

I think I head a bit more spooking now

Do all turbo engines have this? I have an 18 Cruze and kinda curious.

The TMD is most common on the euro cars. VW, Audi, and several BMWs use it. The Germans like a quiet turbo. On your Cruzer, your best bang for the buck to hear your turbo better will be a quality aftermarket intake set up. It will act like an acoustic chamber, amplifying everything the Turbo is doing. This is true for 95% of the turbo charged engines on the road, even diesels. 👍✌️

Hi bro, congratulations for the video and since I'm also on the subject of modifications I wanted to ask you if this kit is applicable to a 2011 Audi TT8j3 1.8 tsi Thanks in advance

You will probably want to look to find a part for your engine and car specifically

Have mine on the way, Driving a 2009 Jetta TDI, Neuspeed says their damper wont fit if i have the metal bubble stock damper however. I strongly believe its going to fit, i spent hours doing research and looking at various parts online, bolt placement, size measures, angles, etc. I think its going to fit. But aside from that. Reason why im commenting is because i see soo many owners do this part change but have the stock air filter box. I already have a cold air intake and a big cone filter thats not oiled out of the box. You can hear the turbo with the windows up, i can only imagine what its going to sound like with the damper delete. Its going to scream.

After i got mine in i had to take it to a buddy of mine and get it milled because there was a notch on the side that would leak all the boost out. Apparently neuspeed never thought to make ones for the 2009 models. However it works nice for me. And I dont have any engine codes. Been driving with it now a week after comment. I suggest making extra sure you know which one to get because there is about 10 different types.

I think with an intake and the turbo inlet pipe it’ll probably all make a combined louder sound. Did an intake and then put the turbo inlet a month after and the difference was noticeable. I think after I put the muffler on it’ll be way more. Someone said to think of it as adding change to a jar, one coin isn’t much at first but after adding on quite a bit it makes a difference

It is a little bit louder but if you are wanting the blow off sound you need to put a cold air intake on it with a opened filter even with the hood closed it will sound like a blow off valve
