Default Yeah not many have the GMG system that post here...

You, havabooz, foofighter and I think one other are the only ones. I ridden in 3 different Milltek RS4's and imo they were all kinda gurgly sounding. Although loud, not the clear tuned throaty sound from the GMG. I'm really taking a shot in the dark w/ the GMG because I've never heard it in person. I hope it's not too over the top and cabin resonance is next to nothing.

Agreed. New high performance summer tires + 40 deg. temps = bad

Default Did you ride in cars with resonated or non-resonated Milltek?.......

Remember, the proper comparison to the GMG would be Milltek's resonated/non-valved exhaust.

The resonance is minimal imo. It usually only occurs when I'm too lazy to downshift. I know all about taking that chance, all I had to go by was the promotional vids on the web and foofighter's review that I read here....I think gmg has the note tuned just right - not over the top, purrs when babied, then gets super sexy when you put your foot in it!

Default nope...nothign other than this...

im not such a critic of the DRC system...i dont doubt that the stasis or kw's etc are better but i cant justify such a change right now

id like to track the car (never have) and then learn what i like or dislike about the suspension before i change it..

Default there is SOME resonance if u keep it a low rpms (up to ~2.7k) but above that its perfect..

bottom line, its a big change from stock...but im 100% happy i did it

I'm running the KW V3's, handling is greatly improved and looks 10x better
