Have you even bothered to look through the threads? There's like 5 of them in the first 2 pages pertaining to open exhaust in any variety you could possibly think of.

Yeah, I did it as 90% of us have... now go find out how it works rather than posting crap like this.

you have an S4 don't just get a straigh pipe. get something thatwill maintain backpressure. Go with an RB header and pre-silencer setup. Or if you have the cash- DUALs

Well first off you should make sure your car is running as close to stock as possible before you modify it. You could just strain it and have it blow on ya.

Remember if you just slap on a test pipe you will loose the auxilary port actuation and be slower in the high RPMs.


DUALS!!!!!!!! IMO

More like you're too ******* lazy to actually look for the answer when it is right in front of your face, so you just ask for others to do your work for you...

Gotta train them right from the start.

I haven't even mentioned using the search because "cat" is too short for it anyways. I have simply indicated that if you scroll down and look at the thread titles indicating exhaust, that you will find more than enough info to get better informed within the first two pages.

Threads like this occupy bandwidth which could be serving you better while you're attempting to search, and the server is too busy reproducing crap like this to help you out.
