intake and exhaust
i have a 02 jetta 2.0, i wanna make it a lil faster n make itsound a lil better, what would be the best intake n exhaust system for it? i was looking into the K&N intakes.. which exhaust system would be good? i dont want that ricer exhaust sound.. i want it to sound smooth and not too loud.. and what else can i do to make this thing go faster!! turbo costs way too much, oh n its an automatic. lol i need opinionssssss

the obx muffler with custom piping wouldnt sound like a piece of crap right ? lol i dont want that ricer sound, i want it to sound smooth... and will i still be able to use the cataylic converter? or does it come out?

go magnaflow for a dead, crisp, NONE RICE sound with 2.25-2.5 piping. i would get a full catback exhaust, they got for around 4 grand with a muffler, resonator, and new mandrel bend pipe, and they bolt right on, very easy.
as for intake, iv always gone k&n on EVERYTHING but iv seen a lot of vw guys run injen cold air intakes...bbr makes good pipe too...intake and catback exhaust at your local performance shop should be like 6-7 hundred bucks but it is WELL worth it, even with the automatic holding you back...
i would also look into a decent cam and chip if iy where my car

6 or 7 hundo????? you could get an intake cat back exhaust cam and a chip for under 600 easy. tt cat back is like 300 autotech 268 cam 100 nuespeed p-chip 100 and for an intake just swiss cheese your air box and put a k&n panel filter in. 50 max. grand total of $550 and an easy 30+ hp

all depends on brand, styling, and quality. for example...he could easily just hack his airbox to peices but the gain will not be neer what he would get my using a nice 3 inch smooth intake tube, k&n or other cone filter, and cold air airbox...same goes with exhaust and ext.
