Default Power with low sound level?

Piggie pipes vs. Miltek Cat back.

You're comparing down pipes and a cat back setup. The down pipes are definitely going to give you more gains.

Piggies won't really increase the sound of your exhaust, it will make the turbos more vocal though. The Miltek is prob one of my favorite exhausts because it's really not loud and maintains that "sleeper" image that comes with the S4. Surprises people when you smoke em.

Since you're chipped, the next best power gain you'll get is gutting your pre-cats (piggies), I would do that next. But, if you have money to spend, do both. Piggies are basically free, so do them and spend your cash on the Miltek. That will be a nice Stage 2+ setup.

piggies will give you a good power increase and the sound will be a little louder if you keep stock catback. if you just do a catback like a twin 2, it's not too loud and you'll get decent power gains. dp's will give you more tho.
