I had a Cargraphic medium - it was loud, but resonance was a problem. Replaced it with a Kreisseig - way too expensive but sound is excellent and having the ability to switch between the cat and bypassing it is perfect. If I want to bring the turbo lag to almost zero and have the roar of straight pipes, it's there.

 

LOL this is the 4th best exhaust thread you made

Anyway im loving my FVD exhaust with cat bypass pipe's. Can hear the turbo's slightly, great performance gain and sound is amazing as well under normal driving (very mechanical sounding opposed to just turbo's from straight pipes) and under full throttle it ROARS!

 

europipe loud

 

I did notice he left out Europipe on his list. So far from what I've told, they are pretty hard to beat.

 

yeah u need to put the best one on ur list.

 

I've got Fabspeed and have yet to hear one better.

 

We put a new video up - Rolling Thunder. The file is a bit larger, but on the upside the audio quality is pretty good (still not as good as in person).

Its the first video listed on the Variotune Exhaust page
Our clients love the HP gains, but in honesty its the aggressive, mellifluous exhaust note - and the ability to go into stealth mode that excites the most.

A lot of quality systems out there for sure.

I was going to bring this up too, i think its the sickest sounding exhaust out for the turbo! Even the Kressieg doesnt sound that good, as for performance, i can only hope it gives great gains for the money

 

Thanks for the kind words.

There's a review about the exhaust and its attendant technology in an upcoming major publication. It should be on the stands in the next couple of weeks.

Sometimes, I still cant believe how ultimately sick it sounds. The real kicker is the absolute lack of resonance. None whatsoever. Its really the idel exhaust for the driver who wants more power and more sound (without resonance) - but who also requires a dose (no, modicum) of civility (sometimes).

Anybody who hasnt downloaded rolling thunder...do so! Then sound off!

 

Well wish i had the money to drop that on this exhaust, i rather buy other things though, i have my FVD and cat bypass and LOVE it as well. Also sounds amazing, alot of exhaust tone and a crazy afterburner type WOT

 

Does anyone have the Gen II 9ff VAriotune" Sports Exhaust on their TT in the LA area for us to hear? I would appreciate the oppertunity....

 

You guys seriously terrorized the neighborhood!

Is that car RWD or AWD?

 

looks like the exhaust is hanging 2'' from the ground...
