Cobra Sport performance
exhausts enhance the sound, looks and quality of your vehicle giving you the
ultimate driving experience. Our sports exhausts range is fully guaranteed to
give you assurance of our quality.
This VW Golf R Mk7 /
Mk7.5 performance exhaust is made in 3"/76.2mm pipework and fit from the
catalytic converter section backwards (Cat-back), these parts replace the
centre and rear sections.
This resonated exhaust
includes the centre silencer and has a subtle but sporty tone. This exhaust
however, is also available as a non-resonated version (excluding the centre
silencer) which is a louder option.
All relevant fittings
and gaskets are supplied.
Please Note -
This performance exhaust
removes the use of exhaust valves. When switching drive modes (e.g. Eco to Race
mode) your exhaust tone will not change from quieter to louder as before. Using
a Non-Valved exhaust will not harm the running of your vehicle, you will simply
not have exhaust sound options, however the Cobra Sport exhaust has been designed
with this in mind.
The addition of a GPF
Filter in later Mk7.5 models allows the Golf R to conform to the latest
European Emissions Standards but as a trade off, it dilutes the vehicle's aural
qualities, making for a performance car that doesn't quite have the bark to
match it's bite. Cobra Sport have developed a solution for this in the form of
their new GPF-Back Performance Exhaust System. Precision TIG-welded from T304
stainless steel, this new system is available with or without integrated
valves. The valves are specially developed to integrate with the factory
Driving Modes and open or close depending on the mode selected, so you can keep
sound levels to a minimum or unleash the engine's full potential, depending on
your mood. Regardless of what mode is selected, unwanted drone is thoroughly
eliminated. In addition to this, vehicles fitted with the optional DSG gearbox
will emit an enhanced sporty tone on upshifts. The GPF-Back system, as the name
suggests, retains the factory Gasoline Particulate Filter, but still manages to
effectively enhance the exhaust note of the vehicle's EA888 2.0 TSI engine.
COBRA SPORT REVIEW
Matt Thomas, Sales
Manager at Cobra Sport says “We have now collated the performance results for
the Golf R Mk7 / Mk7.5 exhaust system. Having tested the resonated cat back
exhaust system on the rolling road we saw an impressive 7.4bhp increase. Having
driven both the resonated & non-resonated on a daily basis, I personally
preferred the resonated version as it keeps sound levels slightly lower when
cruising. That being said, the Non Resonated variant would be perfectly easy to
live with daily."
