Send them to:
my email address.....
Hopefully that makes sense.(although robots are probably smart enough by now to read the email address above too
)
Hopefully the clips are not REALLY big. I can optimize them for streaming over the Internet as long as they are small enough to fit in my inbox. Under a hundred MB would be good.
Look forward to hearing them... Thanks and I'll try and get a link up on the forum tonight too....

"Turbo" type mufflers, the 1s you can see through. Crawl under your allroad, and get an idea to
where pipe is, inside towards driveshaft, outside toward tires, or straight in the middle(I'm talking where old muffler are). Then look at rear, and get an idea where muffler would have to exit to meet tailpipe. You should be able to find a muffler that meets what criteria you are going to need(size/shape inlet/outlet position). Did they use stainless pipe, or plain steel? If they used plain steel, or aluminumized steel I doubt it would be worth spending money on stainless mufflers.

Don't know if this helps you at all, but pics of the OE and RS6 systems side by side
Note the small front resonators, and the straight through cans used as rear mufflers.
But whatever you do, don't eliminate the x-pipe (corssover) just after the downpipe connections. If you build a system with all new pipes from the downpipes back, you'll loose some of the low end torque, and some of the sound attenuation the x-pipe offers. Even the RS6 system maintains the crossover. Really smooths the exhaust pulses.
