Default No one would sell a resonator-less system, it would be too loud...

you could always have any exhaust shop make you one. Two options;

1) have them cut the resonator out of the existing downpipe of any system

2) have them fab up a downpipe which you connect to either a custom exhaust or an existing exhaust.

Any exhaust shop can do this, as long as they are competent. What would be cool is to have a downpipe with a resonator on clamps that one could remove, then swap with a section of straight pipe, so that when heading on long trips you could put in your resonator.

In terms of volume, the current A4 offerings are all quiet, sorry. You could try getting a 2.75 downpipe with no resonator hooked to a generic turbo muffler...that would be damned loud!
