Default 4.2L exhaust options

Would like to liven up the sound of the Q. What exhaust system are people running? Anyone have any sound clips. Has anyone done a resonator delete?

thanks

I too have been wanting to liven up the exhaust. Been looking at doing a resonator delete and adding new tips.

I searched youtube and couldnt find any videos. I found one with straight pipes but I think it sounds raspy.

Thanks, Yes Ive seen all these videos, was actually looking for a video of someone keeping the factory mufflers and simply deleting the resonator to see what it sounds like. This is pretty common practice in the BMW and MB world, just thought it might be an inexpensive way to get a little more sound out of the Q7. thanks

Going to have mine removed this week and hopefully install new exhaust tips. I will make a video once I have it done.

I thought Milltek had one???
I had looked at one before but decided against it since it is an SUV/hauler and not an AMG or actual sports car

Awesome, please post pics of the section of exhaust that you remove also. In addition if you are going with an X-pipe please let us know what you use or if you just go straight pipe.

thanks
