Default S6 C5 exhaust on an A6 4.2 2001 model

Hi there

Can anyone tell me if a stock S6 C5 exhaust will bolt up without any mods to my A6 C5 4.2?

Reason I ask is that the exhaust shop sells both stock fitment exhausts and they are the same price. This is middle box plus mufflers. I'd like to go with the S6 exhaust as this has exposed muffler tips and I won't need to mod the A6 exhaust to get this look.

Thanks for any advice

You will just have to make cutouts in the rear bumper valence for the exposed tips. But other than that, it is a direct fit.

Thanks Boston - appreciate the reply. No problem with the cut outs, I´ve read the DIY for that part. Thanks again.

I purchased the Flowmaster Force II exhaust system for my 2002 A6. It sounds amazing. You can find them on line for about $1,200.
Here is what they sound like.
