SO .. the three sizes I see (#6 and #7 on the diagram) are 60mm, 65mm and 95mm with 95mm being the constant between the two.... That translates to 2.3622 inches, 2.55906 inches and 3.74016 inches....


The diagram looks like the pipes in front of the suitcase resonator are smaller than the pipes that exit the resonator. I'll go measure the diameter with a caliper tomorrow. I'll have to plan if I want to eliminate the factory couplers in favor of V-band clamps or just section out the resonator and leave the OE couplers...

Cancer Sucks.
This was taken in front of a wall that names kids fighting childhood cancer

That's putting in mildly! While at MA Anderson in Houston a few weeks ago a saw some very young kids awaiting radiation. 5-6 yo. It's enough to bring tears to your eyes. Within and in immediate Vicinity there are atleast 5 child ends hospitals. These are like 60-70 floor buildings, and another one going up. I partially blame Monsanto gmo's in all the food. Not to mention air & water. Cancer was rare in early 1900's, when everything was natural & no GMO's etc.
I was diagnosed with terminal liver cancer in May. HCC. that's when I bought my A8L -D4.
I've tried to drive the wheels off it. It's now spread to bones and can barely get in and out. But I don't feel disabled at all while driving it
My driving days are numbered though. I had to leave car 100 miles from home in last trip due to condition and mild hallucinations I just drive local now

Beautiful!

Mythos black replaced phantom black - correct?

What exactly is the difference?

derfA8L

Mythos looks more true black with a metallic hint under virtually all lighting conditions. Phantom has more changeable look due to its "Pearl effect" paint: a somewhat "washed out" grayish cast when not in direct sunlight as well as under garage florescent lighting---also can have a distinct "bluish" cast up close in direct sunlight.

Had Phantom Black on my 2008 D3 A8L and didn't think it looked anywhere near as black as the Brilliant Black that cloaked my 2006 A8L. Panther Black Pearl on my current 2015 A8 looks more black than Phantom---And Panther changes its appearance multiple times with varying backgrounds and sun conditions, but is still more black than Phantom IMO.

I will say that it's hard to keep clean in this desert climate. I may wrap the car to protect the factory paint.... Pearl White, maybe matte finish....

Is that waxed too, etc.?

If so, what kind of wax(es) do you use.

That black is beautiful.
