Exhaust question....................
there was an exhaust thread this week, and a couple people said they were running aftermarket DP/Cat w the stock exhaust.
whats the benefit of doing one before the other, if you can't do them at the same time, performance wise. and what kind of labor am I looking at for install on a DP, or, exhaust.
Thanks guys!

Metal will give you more power...
but will cost more, worth it IMHO.
As for the tires I would think you can as long as your running the factory wheel/offset. If you drop down below ET48 you will probably start running into problems.

I was wondering the same thing, also with the apr program.....
can you run their stg2+ software with just the downpipe? I think that would be a sweet setup with a stock cat back. I just want to keep the exhasut fart when I shift too!

Simple
A3 exhaust is plenty big. Only reason to replace is to get different sound / look. No power gains.
OEM cat is restrictive, get rid of it and gain real power, but also this will make your car illegal. Replace it with high flow cat, and keep it mostly legal and get some power....

I am running SII beta with just a downpipe. Another DSG owner followed suit and
has kept his fart.
I love it and the power is immense.
Guess I better do a writeup this weekend.
