1.75 in exhaust cut out

[sdjeff]

I've been searching for a pair of exhaust cut outs that would go right in front of the resonators. I can't find any 1.75 inch cutouts; only ones i can find are 2 inches or larger. I straight piped through my resonators on my last car and didn't like the gap from behind so i would like to do it this way. Eventually i would like a full exhaust but for now this will work. Does anyone know where i could find a 1.75 inch cutout? Or could i rig in a 2 incher?

If you're going to do that, why did you get an Audi? You should sell it and go get a civic. That way, your not taking the Luxury out of Luxury Car.

In college with limited funds. I like the cutouts so i can close it and smog or take a road trip. The fact that i can't spend a grand on an exhaust system and instead gonna add something completely unseen yet sounds great takes the luxury out of it? I take it you have never heard an a4 with a cutout after the muffler.. only a small grumble.. sounds very very nice. If it was before the muffler than i would agree with you.

ohhh...your just going to cut a whole in the exhuast after the resonator??/

I can't tell if thats sarcasm. Its just putting a y pipe in between the muffler and the resonators. Very easy to convert back to stock.

I"m still not sure I understand....not sarcasm.

Try Jegs.com

If Jegs does not have them, you could have an exhaust fab up some manual dumps.

ok the stock exhaust has a muffler, than more pipe to the 2 resonators on each side. So putting in y pipes after the muffler will bypass the resonators. Without the resonators the exhaust note through the muffler sounds great! and with a cut out, i can close it anytime and the exhaust gases will go back through the resonators.

Tried jegs and summit with no luck. Only 2 inches available. I would imagine a exhaust shop could put adapters to fit a 2 inch cut out right?

i am lost as what you want to do, your best bet is hit up a muffler shop and they will do it for ya. I am sure they have all sizes in stock. I would imagine that other makes have less than 2" piping

What, a straight dump right after the turbo with no cat doesn't intrigue you?


Don't act like you don't like it.

As for your question, sdjeff, you can weld a 2" pipe onto a 1 3/4" pipe. It will fit over it like a sleeve so the internal flow isn't exactly perfect but it will weld on easily. As a matter of fact, I have a 2 1/2" pipe welded onto my 2 1/4" oem exhaust pictured above, so I know you can do it.

But where the hell do we have 1 3/4" piping? Where do you want to put these? If you really want to save money, just put one dump where I did.

The piping is from the muffler back. Atleast thats what came up when i searched on here. I would like to do it after the muffler because i dont want it to be too loud. Thanks for the help
