Finally got around to converting this video to YouTube. Quick video of my allroad - stage 3 w/ piggie pipes and full cat-back 2.5" MagnaFlow exhaust vs. a 2003 RS6 with sound enhanced/sport exhaust.

Since I've received lots of questions on it, here's the details on the exhaust:

My setup was moderately priced, meaning halfway between picking up a stock RS6 exhaust (going rate around $700 it seems) and the Milltek setup, which goes for upwards of $1,500. All told, it cost me just over $1,000 installed.

The part numbers for the exhaust (with the current prices on the Magnaflow site) are:
12616 - 6" x 14" mufflers w/ 2.5" inlets (x2) - $69.22 ea
10426 - 4" x 18" resonators w/ 2.5" inlets (x2) - $63.62 ea
2.5" x-pipe - $25.11
2.5" stainless tubing - not sure on price there
(all of the above are "satin stainless" -- didn't feel the need to upgrade to polished)
Tips - 35164 double-walled angle-tip 4" (x2) - $98.11 ea.

But it probably has more to do with the sound from the powerplant and not the exhaust... ;-)

Hard to beat a V8 on audio quality.

Yeah, I'd like to hear what a 4.2 AR sounds like with each exhaust.
