Looking for an exhaust for my 02 1.8T thats as far from ricer sounding as possible (cant stand that sound lol) with a 4 cylinder engine..

Anyone with personal experience id greatly appreciate some help! lol

any exhaust will sound good due to the turbo, but seriuosly they all sound good, dont worry unless you seriously mess up it wont sound like a honda(no offense), i got a 3" cat back custom with a magnaflow muffler sounds low and good and at no point does it crackle or high pitch. id post a clip but im too lazy...

If you search you will find videos showing differnt exhaust setups! Or theres YOUTUBE.com maybe you have heard of it?

i put neuspeed cat backs on mine and they sound perfect! check out my cardomain page for the youtube vids man

Yeaa i know ive checked out youtube before and got some ideas but nothin on there sounds great and i think that has to do with the fact that its recorded obviously.. i was seein if anyone had input from actually hearing it in person

Ive heard Miltek and APR sounds good.... Ask around some more

i've heard both miltek and neuspeed in real life, and it depends on what kind of sound do you want?

Both of them will give you the nice low european growl, but the neuspeed one is currently better built and is louder by a couple decibals. So if you want a better quailty and more sound then you should go with neuspeed. Otherwise you could go with milltek

By chance do you know which of the apr exhausts it was?.. cuz i know they offer the stealth exhaust & also a sport exhaust..

Yeaa i just really dont want it to sound like a ricer i cant stand that.. as long as it has a nice low growl like youre saying im sure id love it as long as its a quality product too

I cant recall which exhaust i heard.. But before you get to picky with these exhaust you should look at the price tags! The APR is the cheapest and all i have heard is good reviews!

that kinda sounds high pitched to me lol, but all i know is for a low pitched sound, you should go with miltek or neuspeed.

Id have to agree although it seemed like a shit recording device lol.. yeaa i just want a nice low growl

lol, well my only advice is to go with nesupeed or milltek, both are really good in terms of sound and quality. The only problem is price, they're each gonna run you about 1700 (if you do it at a shop) 1499 if u do it yourslef

AWE sounds the best i think.... But you have to have a quattro=(! Exhaust will run you about 1000...1700 sounds like a rip is that how much it cost you?
BTW if you go APR tell me which one you get!!!!

oops my bad, i meant 1600 if you have someone else to install. The catbacks themselves cost 1499.

milltek ftw

theres no such thing as EXHAUST! AHAHAHAH

Borla custom 3" cat back is by far the best (cause i have it of course). No but it does sound and perform great.

I have the stealth exhaust from APR, and have no complaints. It has a slightly deeper tone than stock, not real noticable. The sport APR is louder but not ricey at all, sounds sweet just wasn't what I was going for.
IMO you shouldn't have a loud exhaust on these cars.....its not a muscle car.
BTW the stealth exhaust added about 15hp......

The B7 APR exhaust only comes in one style?? Am i correct?

as of now, I believe APR only offers the Stealth system for the B7 (i.e. has the center muffler)

Myultrasport so the exhaust sounds good i plan on putting APR on my car! Since there the only ones who make exhaust for B7 stick FWD.

Havent been on in awhile.. thanks for all the input boys..

Im leanin towards apr as of now still not sure whether thatd be stealth or sport quite yet but yeaa gotta love the price compared to others (1600+) and from what many of you have said im kinda likin it..

Ill let you guys know what i do fa show lol

i had a custom exhaust built with 2.75" piping from the dp back, the resonators were deleted and installed magnaflow mufflers. it sounds great, nice and throaty. not ricer at all. Once i get my TP and new down pipe it will sound even better.

Hmm really??.. from the looks of your car id say youre not messing around.. where exactly did you get a custom built exhasut like that?

hey, what about magnaflow cat backs?? how do they compare? all the clips ive seen of exhausts magnaflows seem so sound pretty mean and deep.

The Magnaflow System is pretty agressive souding. At first I was focused on sound proofing my truck to help with the sound, but now I am use to it and LOVE IT! It really helped out in the performance of the car as well. MUCH more than I expected. I really think I got a true 15 hp out of the system. Here is a shot of before and after.
