Hi guys I just completed a stage 1 APR upgrade and am looking into options for downpipes and a custom exhaust. Got any recommendations that are affordable? What is the best ?

modified stock. are you looking for power or sound?

JonmarkLA

Mostly power but would like a good sound.

on my apr chipped A6 I went with an exhaust system and was kind of dissapointed at how quiet it was. On the also apr chipped allroad I just went straight pipe from the center resonator back with some tips. Sounds great, looks good, turbos spool better and not to mention the 80 less pounds hanging of the back. Tips and work out the door was under $200.

I'm in Denver and noticed your plates, where did you get this done for around $200?

I am also in Denver and the work was done at house of mufflers on evans and s dahlia, sounds like an odd name by they have done custom work for me on 3 cars now and quality has always been great. I got the tips online and they did the rest for $135.

There are a ton of options out there, I got these as another member was selling a new pair for a great price. They are Magnaflow 4" double wall tips whcih are about as large as you can go without risking damamge to the bumper from heat. model number is 35124

Did you get any tangible difference in power?
an do you think you'd get any difference on stock?

with the chip and after the muffler delete the turbos spool faster/more/louder, response is faster and top end feels stronger also or it seems to climb to redline easier. on stock I have not had experience first hand but my buddy who has an A6 2.7t tip said he felt the same basic things just not as pronounced. the stock mufflers are pretty big, heavy and restrictive so I would think its worthwhile in any form.
