    yeah, no offense man but that sounds pretty bad.

    Magnaflows should make it better. I would do some bullet freeflow resonators too if you feel like being able to hear yourself think from inside the car.

    A bit raspy but not bad(I guess coming from a boxer engine to me it's not THAT bad). But yeah, the Magnaflow's should clean that up.

    sounds horrible. kind of like you just hacked up your stock exhaust...oh wait....lol

    even the magnaflows with stock piping sound pretty raspy. you need to get proper 2.5 inch piping preferably with an x-pipe

    I'm also looking to buy used Fast Intention or Milltek Exhaust system, let me know if someone selling their's. Fast Intention cost around $1100-$1200 new so I'm thinking it's maybe not worth to spend $500 for magnaflow mufflers with installation.

    Go Fast Intentions. There is a reason why they cost so much! Sounds like sex!

    Stratmosphere's got the best sounding exhaust for half the price of anyone elses fullback system. The build quality can't be beat either, give John a call.

    A lot of exhausts sound raspy when cold. Resonators help a lot. An x-pipe will smooth it out too.

    My buddy got the 14851's installed on his 3.0 B6 A4, sounds really good. Would probably sound better on an S4... IMO, save up for the full cat

    Can't question your taste much, but frankly I doubt F.I. has any performance advantages over Corsa given that they're so similar on paper. I think F.I. or Corsa for performance, either one depending on your taste for sound (If its a B7. B6 goes by default to F.I. as I don't think there is a Corsa designed for it, although it wouldn't be hard to weld on a single exhaust tip in place of the dual's as the muffler's have a single outlet and a Y-split tips)

    A good exhaust shop can build you an aluminzed steel system with 2.5" piping, and x pipe, 2 resonators and magnaflow 14851 mufflers for less than any of the over priced silly stainless systems available. Polished system are absolutely stupid. Why do you care about the pipe being shiny?

    Will Milltek catback exhaust from b6 auto fit b6 6mt? as far as I know the Milltek DPs won't fit from auto to manual, correct me if I'm wrong.

    I was under the impression any downpipes that can fit an auto will also fit a manual, but pipes that fit a manual will not fit an auto due to the manual transmission being smaller.

    I installed the Milltek cat back Exhaust, "Blackstallion" gave me this exhaust for free, Thank You so much Adam!!! You're awesome!!!!! I love the sound, now there's no more rasp and what I like about this exhaust is that it's not to loud and not to quiet.
