Audi A3 3.2 - Exhaust?

[AdamC95]

Hi,

So i know this has probably been asked a million times, but which exhaust go for for the 3.2?

before you purchase a new exhaust, take off the resonator just after the converter. after the converter, two pipes are present. one has a resonator. replace with a pipe and then enjoy. it has the same sound as R32. if you want added noise without any bump in hp, then replace intake with evoms or similar. pretty cheap modifications with modest gains in nice noise without spending big bucks on an exhaust which does not add much to HP

Will this cause any drone in the cabin at all? I do love how quiet the car is when cruising around

Wack a standard S3 exhaust on it. I did it to mine a few months ago and it sounds amazing!
Might stick out a bit too far on a standard bumper though.

I've just put up a video I made showing it off, it's on my project thread.

Sounds nice mate! Either that or as above get rid of a silencer

Cat back is the way to go, really compliments the V6 and adds as much noise as you specify from the tuner. I advise against sports cats or a decat as they don't add anything and can throw up an EML.

Here's mine before and after...

Decat S3 catback.

what about cutting it and get off some inches on endings (unless isn't problem for you)?

My car has the Votex rear diffuser, the reason I fitted an S3 system was for the extra length on the tips. I didn't fancy someone cutting off the originals and lengthening them. The sound change was a completely unexpected surprise. It's not perfectly centralised in the cutout, but it's infinitely better than what was there before.
