any ideas on what type of exhaust system would b good for my 2001 a4 2.8L?

 

Magnaflow 14861 muffler and a res. delete is pretty popular. I have a Thrush welded waiting to go on my ride instead. I'll post a video for everyone to see.

 

Agreed on the axle-back system. Don't spend $1000+ for a full catback - you gain virtually nothing other than look and sound and you can get that the way airguard is saying for a couple hundred bucks or so.

 

^ agreed. a lot of people like borla exhaust system but it actually doesn't do a whole lot for you since your stock piping is 2.17" and borla is 2.25". its a setup where people like the sound of it, to get more flow, go atleast 2.5".

 

i got the borla and i would recommend, it sounds perfect. does not have that obnoxious ricer sound.

 

^^^ this is for a 2.8 tho

....try going on youtube and see what you like!

 

did you not just read my post above, haha magnaflow w/ 2.5" piping doesn't sound like a ricer as well but has a lot more flow for the 2.8 V6. borla barely gives you anymore flow, you just paying for the sound.

 

how bout the piping on my 99 1.8t? size and good exhaust?

 

I hear you have to be careful on turbo'd engine's as far as back pressure goes, if you dont have enough it can mess with your engine. I dont think it's true for non turbo, and i doubt you'll get an exhaust system with 0 BP but just throwin' it out there.

 

The previous owner had a Supersprint system installed in my 2.8.
