hello all I took my a4 to a exhasut shop to take off the resonator. after they took it out and i started the car the car sounds EXACTLY the same yet on youtube where other people did the same thing their car sound much differnet. this made me question the shop that if they took out my resonator or secondary muffler. can you guys help me with this? on the picture you can see I point the red arrow thats what they took out. then what it that that i pointed with blue arrow? did they make a mistake?
You know what? ECS removes the rear part while 034 removes the front part. The 1 star review on ECS makes me believe they are changing the wrong part if the person said there was no change in sound.
There are two resonators. There is a center and there is the one closest to the dp (the blue arrow). There should be somewhat of a difference still though.
I have removed the center resonator as well as both mufflers on mine and tried many different combinations for sound and no drone. I am currently running stock downpipe, stock front resonator, solo performance stealth series muffler where second resonator was and then straight piped out to the tips. The sound is great I find without being overly loud. You can tell it's not stock, but there is also no drone in the cabin. This is my daily and with a 2 year old who's ears were hurting from the drone I needed to find a solution. So hard to find a good sound without cabin drone with 4 cylinder engines.

As soon as the weather warms up here in Toronto I’ll get some photos and sound clips. It’s -20C right now but supposed to go up above freezing in the next few days. I’ll try get some then.
