Default Kristina posted a video of this (with sound) in the A4 forum...

...go check it out - stock 2.8 exhaust with resonator removed.

I've got the SuperSprint setup on my 30v and had two pipes made up this weekend to replace the resonator section. One was straight through, and the other has a little glasspack in it. I left the shop with the glasspack in and can honestly say that its not too much louder overall - but you can notice a slight difference. Most of the noise seems to be in the cabin, which is disappointing. On the upside, the flat spot between 2500 and 3500 has disappeared. Im probably going to throw the straight pipe in this week just for kicks.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a4/msgs/1178216.phtml">Kristinas post</a></li></ul>
