Default Vibrant Exhausts on Sale

So, I placed them on sale. 3.0 and 1.8T exhaust are now $775 shipped in US.

Fit and finish are great. Tubing is not the biggest in the marketplace, and I bet this exhaust will not generate the most HP gains. But few exhaust do. More is gained from downpipes, etc.

Sound is also mellow. These were in the Audi Accessories catalog, so you can imagine they passed the quality and sound tests. All of their exhaust pass some European regulation for loudness.

These exhaust compare in sound quality and volume to Milltek at a fraction of the cost. B5 cars have no drone.

Perfect if you are looking for an exhaust that is special but not obtrusive.<ul><li><a href="http://www.startupracing.com/B7ProductsExhaust.htm">Link</a></li></ul>

Since noone in here that has a B7 has a 1.8T or 3.0, do they make a 2.0T or 3.2 Exhaust?

Cool, thanks. What are some pros and cons with going with this exhaust vs others in the market?

Default OK... (remeber I am biased)

Pros:
Cost
Sound - moderate volume
Fit and finish (SS of course)
B5 and B6 versions sold as Audi Accessory, no way for dealer to argue warranty loss (though IMHO no exhaust should void warranty)

Cons:
Less popular (so far)
Not the bigges or loudest out there
No downpipes included (limited power gain)
2 week wait time
Sound - moderate volume
