EGO-X valved exhaust system VW Golf 8 GTI / Clubsport / ED 45 3.5" / 89mm (HGBXAGAVAG38M)

This EGO-X exhaust system for the VW Golf 8 GTI / Clubsport / Edition 45 is handmade using TIG welding, and silencers working on the absorption principle are used. The exhaust system is non-resonated and has no front or centre silencer, to guarantee maximum sound enjoyment with the valve open. No registration required, with ECE approval, if the Bull-X Tronic additional control unit is selected.

Technical details:

• - Pipe diameter: 3.5" (89mm) - Pipe material: stainless steel - Absorption silencer: handmade in-house - cat-back / OPF-back - TIG-welded Note: for the Clubsport / Edition 45 we recommend the 126x94 tailpipe version in carbon or stainless steel, as it fills the OEM cut-out perfectly and harmoniously. These do not fit the GTI with 245PS! Scope of delivery: - Cat-back / OPF-back exhaust system - Tailpipes (optionally available) - Fitting instructions - Fitting kit - Bull-X Tronic control unit (if the ECE version is selected) With electric exhaust valve. SBS motor included in the scope of delivery. When you buy this exhaust system you receive an exclusive T-shirt and a sticker pack from EGO-X free of charge! These are only available with the purchase of an EGO-X system and are not sold separately! With ECE operating licence*: *Only applies to the following selection in the “Operating mode” field: Bull-X Tronic control unit (with ECE operating licence). This valved exhaust system has ECE approval, so it can be used on the road without being entered in your vehicle documents. Caution: exhaust systems with ECE are not affected by the “valve ban” and may continue to be used completely legally on the road. While driving you can decide whether you want to drive in comfort or sport mode. If your vehicle has a drive profile selection, it can be controlled via that. For vehicles without drive profile selection, control can be via a supplied button. The button’s LED lighting tells you whether the valve is currently open (light off) or closed (light on). The control unit automatically closes the valve in all ranges required by the ECE regulation, regardless of which mode you are driving in. In general, the Bull-X Tronic offers two control options: - Within the approved limits of the ECE regulation, the valve is always open. When stationary the valve is also open, as with this system we do not exceed the stationary noise level entered in the vehicle registration document even with the valve open. In the range of 20-80km/h, the valve is always closed. - Comfort mode: the valve is always closed, but opens while driving within the approved limits of the ECE regulation from 75% throttle opening. You can find more information in our info video. Without ECE operating licence*: *Applies to the following 3 options in the “Operating mode” field: exhaust valve control via switch / exhaust valve control via remote control / Bull-X Tronic “Race” CAN bus control unit. If the vehicle has a drive profile selection (sport button), control via this is also possible. For vehicles without drive profile selection, control can be via a supplied button. The button’s LED lighting tells you whether the valve is currently open (light off) or closed (light on). If you have also bought the Bull-X Tronic control unit, it is still possible to open the valve when stationary, but while driving the control unit regulates the exhaust valve according to ECE guidelines. In general, the Bull-X Tronic offers two control options: - Sport (Dynamic, Race) - Comfort mode (valve opens from 75% throttle opening). The “without ECE operating licence” version is not approved for use on public roads - For racing purposes only! CAUTION! The exhaust system offered is not approved under the German road traffic licensing regulations (StVZO)! With the ECE Bull-X Tronic control and the EC catalytic converter you may legally drive your vehicle on public roads. The use of all other controls and/or catalytic converters is intended for racing purposes only. If, despite our notice, you fit an exhaust system WITHOUT ECE approval, you are committing a criminal offence. Possible consequences include: invalidation of the operating licence, decommissioning of the vehicle, a complaint for tax evasion, and possible investigations by the environmental authority.
