    APR Exhaust Chopped Up

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Current Setup: APR catback exhaust on a B8

    This weekend I'm thinking of cutting out the front resonators and straight piping it. And potentially removing the center resonator and replacing it with an x-pipe

    1) is a magnaflow x-pipe sufficient enough? or should I have it custom made (kind of pricey for no reason)

    2) should I do both mods at the same time or one after the other?

    3) thoughts/advice on what it would sound like?

    definitely going to post videos if both happen simultaneously

    Lot's of info there. But I didn't see anyone hack up an APR exhaust, just the stock one?

    3.0T S5 with APR exhaust and an xpipe:

    A wee bit of drone at 65mph+, but I'll take a comprimise and can switch back to the resonated system any time I want.
