Default Good write up. It's a shame you had to...

...reinstall the OE cat and downpipe after all that work (having a less restrictive cat/downpipe to install would've been nice).

At least we now know the "easiest" way to remove these is from the bottom.

Thanks John

Default I have some 3" pipe and mandrel bends...

but at that point in time, I just wanted to get it back together and running again.

I've got some things planned for it though

John, I just had my clutch replaced in my A4 1.8T FWD and due to a high pitch squeal in the transmission. I thought it was the throw out bearing and they ending up replacing the bearings, clutch and PP.

Now I am getting alot of vibration in the car at 65-75 MPH and there is a noise when I rev. the car to 2-3K RPM's which isn't normal to me. It didn't do it prior to the clutch change out but it is doing it now.

Do you know what might be causing it and do you think it was a result of the clutch change out?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks...
