APR v1 is too loud for me - APR v2 is also too loud for me - but short of a custom set-up (M)
There's nothing I really like, and I'm tired of not hearing where the heck my revs are.
Milltek and AWE are around the same = too quiet.
I don't like the Borla fitment or tone, and the VM3 is too loud.
So what does taht leave me with? APR - and my big gripe with that is that it drone's around 3k-4k RPM's, but I guess I'm just going to have to deal with it..............anyways - I haven't neccesarily decided I will buy one, but if the price is right, I'll just do it and if I can't deal with it after a couple of weeks, I'l re-sell it.

that's weird, my APR drone is much lower, around 2k...
...and it's pretty transparent under even throttle above 2800 rpms.
I really trust B&B TriFlow exhausts, they aren't the quietest, but they are a good company.
I think once you scare a couple of small children on the sidewalk, and set off some car alarms in the Palo Alto garage, you will wonder how you ever lived without the exhaust.

Well, you never heard my 98 A4 2.8 qms...
...that was loud, and had serious drone. The S4 pales in comparison (the turbo's really help that out).
I don't mind loud cars, it just doesn't bother me, but I know it does bother some.
As for B&B TriFlow, you can read about them here:

If you notice, they have a Video of an S4 with their B&B TriFlow exhaust on it. Well, this is the APR exhaust (not sure if its APR SRT or APR V2), but you can check that out here:

I agree with ryan...that v.1 drone is a bit lower and it's not that bad at all IMO...i'd put up
with a little drone down there to experience how cool that thing is everywhere else in the revs.
