Default The Milltek is very nice so it's really up to you.

Have you heard the AWE exhaust? It might come down to which sounds better to you? The Milltek is almost stock quite.

all other things aside, the sound should make that sale.

Default I want to post the sound of my exhaust next week...The thing is the mic I'm using isn't....

all that great. I have a good sound editing program and a decent audio card. Oh, the exhaust will be the Milltek dp's and APR v.1 cat-back. It might be pretty loud. you'r right, the sound can really sell you.

Default We can vouch that our downpipes with Borla cat back is *extremely* civilized in volume.

<center><img src="http://www.awe-tuning.com/media/products/awe/awe_s4dp_final2.jpg"></center><p>We have this combo on our Avant, and the volume was hardly louder with the addition of our downpipes to the Borla. And the Borla is a very civilized system in terms of sound volume.

We guarantee the most power from our downpipes than any other design currently on the market.<ul><li><a href="http://www.awe-tuning.com/products/Audi/Audiparts.cfm?PMaI=1&PMoI=4&PEI=6&PP=s4_27t_exhaus t.cfm&PPT=Exhaust#AWESflo_DP">AWE S4 downpipes</a></li></ul>

Default I didn't mean to suggest sound was the *only* property to consider

I was simply stressing that the Borla/AWE downpipe combo was extremely civilized, for anyone that was concerned.

Personally, I feel performance should be a very top priority. It is obvious to us that our downpipes have the most development work and display the most advanced exhaust flow theory of the bunch.
