Sod that, you can get a custom exhaust for less.
Yeah, got the full system, 3"downpipe, sports cat and cat back system. When i get the car back i'll put a sound clip up.
Cat back is similar to standard, slightly deeper and most importantly doesn't boom in the cabin!
This is cat back

Yours will sound nicer because of the map
Just got a prices back they are as follows:-
Exhaust UK Sheffield:-
Cat Back:- £295
Turbo back with Sport Cat:- £650
Pipewerx
Cat Back:- £375
Turbo Back with Sport Cat:- £950
Anyone got any info about UK Exhaust Good or Bad?
They've put their prices up.
Pipewerx is local really Luke, not too far from you. Have a nip down and a quick chat with Jeff. Not seen the work by Exhaust Uk Sheffield but Pipewerx has been very realiable, i've never had to go back to get things adjusted because they've gone out of line or it's started to boom.
Not sure whether Exhaust Uk's rear box is inline or whether it goes across the back like the milltek, i asked for Pipewerx to use the space and put the box across like the milltek, visually i think it's nicer because you don't see the rear box straight after the tailpipe

Dont get me wrong it's a good price luke but i seem to remember been quoted around £500ish not too ,long ago, may have to give them a call and see what they say to me.
at a custom exhaust place such as exhaustsuk, they can make it as loud or quiet as you want.
How?
The restrictive part on the 8L S3 is the exhaust manifold and the downpipe.
On a stage 1 map just changing the downpipe and cat and using the standard system is fine. If you go 3" from turbo back your going to have quite a loud system, if the boxes used aren't good quality the booming in the car too which will get quite annoying after a few months. The only way you can make it quieter is to reduce the pipe work to 2.75 or 2.5.
