Default Got a nice offhanded compliment from the uneducated last night...

So I was meeting some friends late last night at a nice restaurant/bar. I was running kinda late, so I went to the valet and slipped the guy a $20 to park the S4 up front with the blinged out Hummers and Benzs.

Now I have a full back Labree with 2 resonators, and as he's backing in slowly next to a Hummer, one spot away from the door where I'm waiting in line, so you can imagine my excitement for hearing my exhaust loud and proud.

There's a couple behind me in line, i can see the look on their faces, "what car is that noise coming from?" The lady says "is that that Hummer?" Then she sees the Audi backing in and says "Good god, it's just an Audi, get over it!"

I smirk, turn to her and say "That's MY Audi."

The look on her face was priceless. Embarrassed that she just shoved her foot in her mouth, etc. Her husband says to me "We're sorry, my wife... she talks too much."

Good times.

That comment though is exactly why I loved my Audi, they usually never knew what just hit them...

Default Funny. How much louder is the Labree when crusing on the hwy?

been pondering Labree vs. Millitek for a while, but still waiting on Labree's B7 version.

Default From what I understand, the Labree fullback w/ 2 resonators is louder then

Milltek nonres fullback. But I'd imagine you'd have to get them next to each other to really tell.

The Labree is significanlty louder then stock while cruising on the highway, however, IMO its not annoying.

We should do the Vegas S4 meet thing... I'd be interested in checking out the exhaust.
