Well, I guess there are as many opinions on this as there are 
subscribers to this list. My personal opinion is that the stock exhaust 
robs a lot of power from the engine, I would reccomend going to an 
aftermarket exhaust if you want a bit more power from your VW.

I really noticed this when I replaced my stock system with a single 
"turbo" muffler. And I'm not talking about the butt-feeling either, as I 
actually noticed higher speed up this hill I drive everyday. I cant 
remember exact nuimbers today, but I believe I managed between 5-10 kmh 
higher speed up this hill with an exhaust system with better flow.
