Any avant owners with a twin2/AWE DP or Twin1/piggie combination?

What they sound like inside :)
Was hoping to go for a ride. I'm torn.... the DPs with twin2 sound perfect, but the dps are expensive. I could stay with my piggies, but I'm sick of the cels that I can't get rid of since I had the piggies done. Decisions decisions.

1. Your piggies with Twin 1 will still be LOUD. Not quite like our avant loud, but you will definitely turn heads.
2. I can do DP's for you under $1k, but you have to choose cats or test pipes. Doing this with Twin 2 is perfect for daily IMO
3. Keep your piggies w/ Twin 2 and know the sound will be solid, little less performance compared to DP's and CEL.

I know I know I know............
I rode in an avant that had straight pipes to a custom exhaust, but it wasn't nearly as bad as people make it seem. Definitely too loud for 5 hour drives, but not as bad as I thought. It's hard to know not having ever ridden in another avant. Either way, good 'ol B set me straight. So it will be a Twin 2, and hopefully some DPs just to get rid of this damn O2 code from my piggies. I have 140k on this car and it's the only code I ever get.
Man I wish I would have found time to ride in your car *sigh*. Hope all is well with you Matt!

idea 4 u
save the dp money and buy a fueling kit that can turn off your secondary o2 sensor...they are worthless anyway!
srs bang for the buck
The wagon is still in Minneapolis, next time you come through i'll give the kid a call and arrange some friendly pulls ;-)

C'mon Matt....
We both know Pearls are fast; really fast. I'd just post the carnage on youtube and start a shart storm on here. It's the cool thing to do.
Hm I kind of forgot about turning off the rear O2s. I'll have to look into that. DPs are kind of a low priority on my list at this point anyway.

I'm not an avant owner, but I have twin 2 with AWE DPs...
My friend has a clip of me racing a single turbo supra and you can hear my exhaust perfectly -- it's aggressive sounding, but not overtly loud. My car is currently at Avalon getting some more Altituned hotness done to it. However, this time, I'm going with test pipes. I can't wait till it's done -- I'm anxious to hear it.
I'll see if I can get the clip of my exhaust -- it's a really good representation of what twin2 w/DPs sound like under WOT.
