Im pretty sure it fits, the only reason they say it doesn't is because of the valence.

Default Yes, that is the issue. The system will bolt up fine, but the quad tips will not clear the single

opening on the B6.

We have not experimented with other valences, so that question is up in the air...

Default So if we went to a body shop and had them modify the valence, a B7 system *could* work?

Also, do your B6 and B7 exhaust systems sound the same in person? Your B7 video sounds a lot better than the B6 video.

Default Theoretically, yes. But you would want to have our system on hand first.

Our quad outlet uses all the same parts as the single outlet except for the rear mufflers and tips. That means all the tubing before that is identical between the B6 and B7 S4.

They sound the same in person. The difference you hear between the videos is the difference between video shot with the video portion of a digital camera 4 years ago (B6) vs our current HD camcorder with external mic (B7). Technology!

Default In the email back to me (but it was the Porsche/Bentley specialist) it pretty much said

that it is different. I was looking to be the test car here. So are the systems the same except the openings? Same specs, different mufflers or tips? If that is the case, maybe I could see what I could work out. If it is just adjusting the valence I could look into it.
