Default Explanations and Opinions please on Auto Speed and AWE

Hey Guys,
Well, I have had my StageII+ S4 for about 5 months now...it came with the UUC V1 exhaust...at first I loved it because I was used to a loud exhaust coming from an Evo having one on there...
However, I am considering replacing my DP's from the APR V1 that I have on there with Auto Speed's 3in. ones...and going with a AWE Cat back...not sure though....

So I do need some feedback on DP's please...I looked at the AWE DP's and wondered why everyone else doesn't make 3in. all the way DP's? Wouldn't that in theory be better flow for our Turbos? AWE's go from 3in at Turbo to 2.5? I think...

Also, on the Cat back side of things...yes I want the best performer...but if there is any difference between the Twin1 vs Twin2? I haven't checked out Autospeeds cat backs...but just some thoughts on the matter would be great...I know I probably have the loudest cat back exhaust (with cats) for the S4...I listened to the Twin1 and Twin2 and obvously the Twin2 is quiter...Don't know what to go with...

Thanks for the input!
Clint

Default autospeed DPs are VERY popular, from the pics i've seen they look great.

Exhaust choice IMO is mainly down to what you want it to sound like. Id do my best to find people close to you with a couple different setups, go for rides with them, and see what you like best.

Yeah,
I listened to the Autospeed exhaust note...those 3.5in exits in the rear look to big? anyone else agree? or maybe that is just how it looks from the video...
Anyhow, torn between the two systems I guess...anyone have pics or more reviews? Please post them up!

Thanks

So Autospeed did it.

Default You should consider LaBree Motorsports as well

The Split DPs with Borla cat-back are mello while cruising & loud when you want them to be at WOT.

LaBree Motorsports DPs are on sale for the month of January from TantrumWerks. A full turbo-back system from us would still leave you with cash in hand! ;-)<ul><li><a href="http://www.tantrumwerks.com/html/dp.html">LaBree Motorsports exhaust systems from TantrumWerks</a></li></ul>
