    First of all, I would like to thank Mike @ Forge Motorsport for all the help to get my hands on this gangsta exhaust! And Four Season Tuning for the installation!

    This system is a cat'ed and resonated Scorpion Titanium Turbo-Back.
    The exhaust is super light and the build quality is just WOWW!!!
    Installation was a bjtch since we had to take the driveshaft out in order to get to the downpipe.
    Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to do comparison weight between the Scorpion Ti and stock exhaust, oh wellz...

    Anyways, enough talking... Here are some pictures. Enjoy!

    ECU tuning is required for any exhaust system with high-flow cat.
    I don't have ECU tuning on mine just yet (still shopping around to see the best to my needs) BUT I do have a 02 sensor spacer installed in order to avoid CEL.

    Interesting... Do you think that by doing that, you may be causing any possible future missfires or anything that can either be negative in the long run or see any immediate effects (i.e. loss in power, engine not running smoothly etc)?

    Don't think it would cause any problem.
    I have had the same 02 sensor spacer on my 1.8T GTI daily for over 3 years now and the car is driven 100+ miles daily, no problem whatsoever.

    I'm assuming that there are different version of Scorpion exhausts? I thought I remembered one with a valve that closed and opened like the 08 R32's?

    WOW,

    so I take it that was a custom job in order to use the stock OEM flapper?

    do you have a thread linky that goes into more detail for Jonny C's exhaust?
