[biketsai]

816 ftw

[h4robkr123]

816 ftw

QFT^

Some run the 14816, while others run the 14815, it's all about personal preference. Personally I have the 816 and it sounds great.

[somebody5788]

I dont like the 816 at all... tips are just wrong imo. I have the 14862 and i love it.

[le91688]

i have the 14815 with a res delete and it sounds very sexy.

Looks pretty nice too.

[Insomniac]

14815 here. It's pretty much standard issue on the 2.8

[mkturbo3]

816 is the bigger one correct ?

I also have the 815.. when you say res delete do you mean you removed the stock resonator? Or is there something else I don't know about that you can do? I'd like to make mine a little quieter if possible.

they cut my res out and bent a new pipe to go in its place and welded her in.

14805 shorter tips and looks better imo when it is flush with the rear of the car.

[ayfour99]

anyone have a pic of 14805 and 815? i dont what the tips to stick out to much
thanks

[le91688]

Ugh, c'mon guys think about this one. Any muffler can be set flush with the bumper.

[AWD Mike]

Exactly. Whether or not you are welding it on yourself or not, YOU decide where the muffler should sit. I have never been to an exhaust shop that would have it sticking out.

Maybe it's just my area, but that is one of the ONLY things I will take my car to a shop for, having a muffler welded on.

I am getting the 14816. Sounds great IMO.

i own a 14862! love it!

QFT?!

[dbtong]

I have a 14830 on my 2.8 12v. Looks great but the sound is kinda hollow...and it's a little noisy when on the throttle at around 2700 rpm. I'm going to have to figure out how to mellow out the sound.

[mkturbo3]

any1 wanna trade their 14816 for my GHL ? lolz

[h4robkr123]

QFT?!

If that means you don't know what QFT stands for, it's Quoted For Truth.

[TheWrightAudi.]

yea the 14815 and the 14816 sounds sick on the 2.8, but what about the 1.8? i think the 14815 sounds ok on the 1.8 but what else is ther.

[datacrime]

hey,

I am also interested in one of these and wondering if the tips are all dual, I was looking for one big Oval shaped tip, is that possible with these?

[im sofa king]

I went 14815 on my 1.8tqm straight from the downpipe. Too loud and droney in my opinion. Cruising at highway speeds sucks, sounds stupid. Resonator is on its way. But if you like it stupid loud, 14815 with straight pipes for the win!!!!!

Youtube search my name "PleaseJustBelowMe" I have 3 vids up of 14815.

Cool turtles man.


What straight through res do you have on there?

Lol thanks, One of them actually just died. I guess turtles cannot digest Lobster. Who woulda known

Thats a Magnaflow res. The exhaust has really broken in since then. After "Spirited" driving on decel she cracks and pops and she has a deeper idle growl.

I assure anyone considering my setup to go ahead and do it. You will not be disappointed. If you dont think its loud enough you have no business driving an Audi

I had what I thought was a Magnaflow res but it just made it much louder and when I had the OEM res put back in it quieted down a lot but it's still a little louder than I'd like. The one I had was the 14415 straight through but it didn't help the sound at all. Do you know what model you have?

[4A Play]

Actually I have no idea. The exhaust shop did new 2.25 piping, all new mounting rubbers/ seals, and the res for $165 welded and mounted. I supplied the 14815.

They even high temp painted it for me.

[a4937]

Do you happen to know how long it was? I'm trying to find one that is an actual resonator and not a muffler like I think the 14415 is that I already had on and taken off the next day lol.

10415
10425

As you can see the 10425 actually says in the description that is can be used in conjunction with another muffler to reduce sound. I just don't see what is so different with that compared to the one I had that looked pretty much identical.

14415

Thanks for the info.

[TheWrightAudi.]

so the 14815 is much to loud on a 1.8 with straigh pipes?

[im sofa king]

for me, yes

[flynnr]

i have a 1.8t with 2.5" straight pipe from the flex pipe to the magnaflow muffler as well, and yeah its too loud, especially on the highway cruising for a while...

get one of these!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...3AIT&viewitem=

only $21 shipped...not too bad (just a glasspack so it should cut cabin noise pretty good but keep a deep, but more mellow sound out the back)

mine is scheduled for delivery for tomorrow... so i will let you know how it sounds

so your gonna keep the the magnaflow in and have the red hot muffler as a resonator?

[4A Play]

^The exhaust shop actually told me that those mufflers would hae the fiber glass packing blown out of them within 5,000 miles and be loud as hell. The magnaflows are packed with some sort of lava rock packing which is why they are said to never be blown out.

[TheWrightAudi.]

ughh k im just gonna go with a 14815 all the way from the cat. and see how it ends up. i want it loud. but everybody has a differant opinion on what loud is. apparently borla is too quite. and i dont want that. but i am looking for the attention when i drive by.
any opinions?
