Default Very nice sig and even nicer mod list. I'd replace that G1 with something more free flowing, though.

Like I'm one to talk, with a Milltek 3". I think the G1 is about as restrictive as you can possibly get, though.

what exhaust you recommend that isn't too loud and free flowing.

Default I love the quietness of my exhaust. Milltek 3" is almost stock quiet.

As for fitment, it's not bad. Piggie and I think I have an exhaust leak somewhere we can't find making this weird sound at WOT. I've come to not mind it too much, but otherwise the car is almost as quiet as stock when at idle or just cruising.

If I had it my way though, I'd have a dual exhaust. I'm just way too cheap to cough up the dough.

Default Is the weird noise coming at specific RPM?

I had a strange problem like that with mine. I think it was rubbing on something. It sounded like a kazoo at right around 4k.

Default I actually would love to remove my cats, but don't want that stinkin' CEL.....

When someone figures out how to have no cats without a CEL while not running APR weaksauce, I'll probably do it. I've heard it's still quite quiet with the Milltek 3".

Default Sounds similar to my situation.

After 4,000 or 4,500 at WOT, it sort of sounds like the dentist drill. I actually replaced my K03s thinking they were dying when in reality it was just my stupid exhaust. My K03s were/are perfectly fine, but hey it was a great reason to upgrade.
