Europipes the one

I have tried 4 different exhaust systems for my 04 TT X50, the most recent of which is the Europipe Loud, all I can say is that for me it is simply the best. No other exhaust I have tried or listened to comes close to the sound quality or build quality. Interior resonance was a concern, but to my ears this system is very acceptable. the exterior exhaust note is outstanding.

dbturbo...in all fairness to the other manufacturers I would rather not list them. Exhausts are very subjective and what works for one may not work for another.

I couldn't agree more. Exhausts are so subjective. I did not like my Europipe Loud and returned it. I could not stand the drone in the car on the highway. It did sound great other then the cabin drone.

I had the same experience with the EP loud, didn't like it at all. Drone was horrible from an exhaust that was really quiet outside the car anyway. Too each his own.

Bucking.......Thanks, you taught me well...lol.


LSM.....There is no way you could listen to my car from the outside and say it was quiet...believe me. As for the drone, I find all exhausts will drone if the rpms are too low or you are in too high a gear, even the stock exhaust drones.

I had the exhaust on my car for two weeks. Do a search, I complained about the quiet outside and loud inside a year ago. I know what it sounds like first hand. I didn't like it, you do, that is all that should matter. Its a subjective thing. Enjoy.
