Bij de woordjes 'Gillet' zegt elke polo-rieder van 't eerste uur: Das koel.
Maar hoe zit t nu eigenlijk? Kan d'r weinig tot geen info over vinden. D'r staan wel wat woordjes op 't net, maar tabellen met types, modellen, prijzen etc: niets van dat al.
Enige stukkie text dat eventueel interessant is:
Gillet: German Made. Very High quality. Designed for European Pro- Rally, this means it's next to indestructable. Very Good power benefits (although not the best) with little change in sound at normal or idle gas. Stainless steel construction INSIDE the mufflers. This is where most systems suffer the worst corrosion/rust damage, unless you live where roads are salted in the winter. Complete bolt on two muffler system plus a baffle pipe between the cat and mid muffler. Nice subtle round black end pipe (available in dual tip as well). Gillet is an OEM in Germany, and I believe at some point for US made VW's as well. To quote almost every source, "You can't go wrong with Gillet". Cost: between $370 and $420 USD depending on your source. Note: Make sure when purchasing to get the chain hangers, the Gillet is a HEAVY system and will break normal exhaust hangers. These are made by VW motorsport and are available at most tuning shops. They run from $9-15 per, (you'll need three). Also you'll need an adapter depending on your engine type. Nice deep tone at idle. Nice deep GROWL on the gas. [From ND]: Very high quality system from Germany with limited fitment as they have no US offices and are imported by a few companies. No warranty reconized as only covered by what the few importers will offer. High priced and worth the money
Maar goed: over welke auto gaat dat? Precies de A1 (en niet A01)
Zover ik wat weet:
- Gillet 'bestaat niet meer' / 'maakt geen uitlaten meer'
edit:
1994 wurde Gillet, der grösste und führende europäische Erstausrüstungs-Herstellers von Abgassystemen übernommen
Gillet is dus overgenomen / gefuseerd met Walker in 1994.
- Originele look
Wat ik zie/lees/afvraag:
- Inox??
- Diameter?? / Group N??
- Gillet van 'nu' =/= Gillet van 'toen'? (Walker Gillet / Powersound etc)
