    Im looking for a 3" exhaust system for the mk2 golf but cant seem to find anyone that makes one.

    Can someone point me in the right direction or do I need to make a custom one?

    None off the shelf that I've ever seen, what are you running to need a 3" system?

    Pipewerx in Ormskirk will make you a system to your spec.

    They're VAG specialists & they've done a great job on my race car.

    Longlife will make you one I reckon, and you'll get 15% off if you're a Club GTI member. Go into the engines section and click on their banner for more details.

    It's a franchise business, so shop around for a local-ish franchise that has a good rep.

    You need to be around 250 bhp or more to need something that big though. If you go for too big an exhaust you'll lose power.

    Any given gutter, any given day.
    Bin the air filter, put the cam in the fuel tank (increases the fuel flow), and put the electric supercharger right on the end of the tailpipe - that way it'll suck out exhaust gases instead of trying to force them in.

    If I were you, I'd choose 4.5" instead of 3".
