Exhaust... any suggestions?
I have upgraded my DVs and intake already and want to do exhaust this summer. Probably chip next summer since I will be over 50K miles.
I am not looking for crazy sound, I like the sleeper factor. I am looking for better response and improved performance..... without getting rid of the tip for the 6 speed.
What has everyone else used? Anything I should avoid?
thanks,

How about Sleeper factor + sound at higher RPM's?
If you want that then I can recommend the SuperSprint exhaust, not loud or annoying at lower speeds but if you hit the throttle then she'll come alife with a beautiful deep humming sound ;-)

I like my RS6 installation. Quiet inside the car, all hangars line up perfectly, and flows r
really well at higher rpms. Downsides? need to have it fabricated, weld on the tips of your choice, and finding a used RS6 exhaust. But 1/3 to 1/2 the price of the other systems out there.

I like the price.... do you end up paying for in effort since it isn't an out of the box solution?

Answer...
The Borla 4" double wall stainless tips were $65 each iirc. I paid the shop $140 to install, weld the tips on, and fab the sleeves to mate the factory downpipes to the larger diameter RS6 piping. So I'm into the whole thing for a bit over $600 all in. Sold the RS6 tips for $100 to another A6 person so net is just over $500.
