So, I think I'm going to delete the rear mufflers. I read the thread that used the resonated tips, but I think I'll try straight pipes through to the existing tips. I can always come back with the resonated tips later if need be. I just don't want the car to have too much drone during normal driving. Any BTDTs?

I did the rear muffler delete, however went with the Magnaflow resonated tips. Personally, I prefer the mooted sound when on the hwy or cruising, but when I step on the gas, you, and everyone else, can certainly here the wonderful sound of the V8

With just a straight-pipe, the sound ALL the time might be a bit too much. It's analogous to scotch, yes I like it, but do I drink it ALL the time...not so much

Finally received the Tune2Air. It's a little quirky, but connects easy and sounds good. I'll probably install some kind of dash mount so it's within reach.

You couldn't leave it in the glove box?

My thoughts exactly. Why do you need to reach it? My OEM adapter just lives in the glovebox and connects automatically when i get in with my phone.

Glad it shows track info and sounds good though. My have to sell my Audi adapter and buy this instead...

Well, my hope is to just leave my phone in my pocket (or where ever). But skipping from track to track on iTunes or Spotify doesn't seem to work that well. Unless I'm doing something wrong. that leaves me having to use the actual phone to skip tracks.
