How can I make my car sound louder/better? V.Neuspeed Exhaust

[jbrown7815]

Alright people so I currently have Neuspeed exhaust, but I want louder.

What can I do to make this happen? Test pipe? TIP?


Learn me


I love how Martini's sounds...

Thanks

[junkie1.8TQ]

Alright. Is this a tough install?

Will I fail emissions, lol?

^^Doy! obviously man testpipe= more emissions than a factory.

not hard to install and yes, you will fail emissions due to a lack of a cat.

[jbrown7815]

I see. As far as I remember they don't test exhaust unless your car is a certain age old...


Hmm

[audikid66]

jus do it i have NS exhaust and TP.. love it

[jbrown7815]

I guess I'll have to get chipped first, correct?

Since when did NS make 3" exhausts for the B6 AWD?

You could always get a test pipe that looks like a cat if you have to do a visual:

Well I'm assuming this is what I had, when I bought my car from a guy on AZ this is what he told me it had...

edit:


Well maybe it's 2.5"

Man I feel like an idiot...


IDK where I came up with 3" at

[AudiA4_20T]

lol its like 2.35" not 3"

Once you pick up the test pipe, install it. Then get chipped w/ the hi flow cat file, that way there's no CEL.

Test pipe install on mine did not change sound of Neuspeed that much, especially if you're loking for "louder".
There is more than the exhaust itself as to why you'd like Martini's exhaust tone. Get a big turbo and appropriate software file and your exhaust will sound like that too.

test pipe made my old NS sound rice tastic. I had to put on resonators to hide the embarrassment... There is a fine line between a good sounding exhaust and a ricey sounding exhaust.

[rxrep]

Yep on the "rice" sound, although I honestly didn't think the TP changed much on mine other than making the tone deeper- and OP, you may be going by the WOT box video Ryan posted where camera is directly behind the exhaust. It sounds VERY deep there. When Ryan and I were at Waterfest, our cars sounded pretty much identical, since we both have same kit and exhaust. While deep, it isn't the earth-shaking deep that the video seems to project. I do like the Neuspeed exhaust sound, though. But exhaust sound is a very opinionated thing.

[A4 KiDD 810]

Do you have a/any resonator(s) ? Have them taken off.

shit, well come help me with mine

[SeKKeY]

test pipe + NS exhaust does not sound ricey at all IMO..could sound a bit deeper but its more raspy than ricey

[kneel]

I passed inspection today with my test pipe(In upstate NY). Surprisingly, I haven't gotten a check engine light since I installed my TP a month ago.

I have TP and Borla exhaust. It has a nice mellow deep sound and is fairly quiet until I really stomp on it, then it's almost a little too loud for me.

Test pipe!
