With so many known exhausts on the market, why go with something like this?
You might get lucky and its a great exhaust, but more than likely it isn't.

I was there while my friend was there for installing the exhaust. I saw the whole installation process, and they seemed they really put a lot of effort on the product and the service

And it sounds great!

It is hard to choose exhausts, I did buy a Kline based on reviews here, and I love it! I did end up removing the catts to get a bit more sound. But a valved exhaust seems like a good idea.

sounds great! anyone out there that can attest?

while there are plenty of great exhausts out there for the TT...they are all obviously up for debate. In my opinion, this sounds the best as far as crappy videos go. Nothing beats sound in real life so i do take the video with a grain of salt...so i guess the real question is...

anyone around here have this exhaust? if not...anyone willing to be the first and let us all know your thoughts? i'm thinking about it...

Sounds great. Love that you hear so much turbo with the valve open. I have a techart exhaust and I wish I could hear more turbo spool

I like the valve control idea with this. I wonder if you can find someone to program the valve open in sport mode and closed in regular.

I notice a few people asking about the FI Exhaust Valvetronic Exhaust System. So I made a quick video for fun so you can hear the exhaust! Its perfect for my taste. Its loud when I want the attention. But with the click of a button, the valves close. When valves are closed, its great. Not too loud until you accelerate then it sounds like a GT3 with boost. Open valve is really a show off mode. Its super Loud and the turbos whistling is soothing. Wife is happy because we have wife mode. And I happy with beast mode. 85% of the time I drive with it closed.

fabworx on here builds a boost regulated exhaust. as boost increases the cutouts open more. at 10 psi its a wide open exhaust. check them out

FI exhausts are great. Not on the level of Akra, but they are a specialized exhaust company with a big factory only for exhausts.
