"I was thinking of just using the OEM tips or another single tip they might have that looks nice too. Any suggestions?" Ok, this is where it is important. I strongly suggest that you custom your mufflers when you have the lower valence and the tips you want, ready! Reason being, you are able to customise how much you want your muffler tips to pop out of the lower valence(i will attatch 2 pictures, before and after i changed my muffler). See how my tips in the second picture "sticks out" more. Unless, you prefer the tips at bodykit length(many suggest that it doesnt look as nice). The turbo rear valance runs at ~$400 - $600.

"Are they able to let me hear the sound of the Magnaflow and the Elite so that I can compare their noise level? Would you say that the Magnaflow is VERY quite, close to stock? Or just a little less loud compared to the Elite?"

Ok, This is also very important. Firstly, the Elite mufflers sound good in my V6 cayenne, never had any problems with it. I believe it must sound better in a CS, afterall its a V8 engine. But I cannot be sure about that. If you want to compare between the magnaflow and the Elite, I cannot tell you the sound differnce, all I can tell you is.. You know the "growling" sound the CTT makes when it is at stationary? Elite will do that for the V6, but not Magnaflow. That was why I chose Elite. This is what the dealer told me, "For the growling sound, you will want to go with the Elite mufflers, the magnaflow is more quiet." So, its actually up to your own preference, how you want your car to sound at stationary, low rpm, high rpm, while reving, etc..
listen to my attatched clip again and you'll understand what "growling" sound I am talking about. =)

 

So you are saying that the ONLY way were they can custom fit the tips (to stick out more or not) is if I have a Turbo rear valence? Shouldn't they be able to do that with my OEM CS tips as well? I think I also like the tips to stick out just a little...

How long have you had these mufflers?

I also like the "growl" you are talking about... so the person at the dealer told you that the Magnaflow does not have that growl? Sigh... getting exhausts is always a big decision . Thank you for answering all my questions though...

And your car is seriously super hot.

 

HAaha.. Thx.. why dont you post a pic of ur car too? Anyway, I installed the muffler just before thanks giving this year. Hmm.. and I did not say that the ONLY way to customfit the tips is to have a turbo rear valence. What I meant was that, IF you want a PERFECT fitment, I recommend that you have your lower valence installed 1st so that when installing, you can adjust how much you want your tips to show. If not, the mufflers might just slant a little, you dont want them to slant, you want them to look perfect right?

Dont worry man, take it easy.. =) You will get a nice sound for your car..

 

So the Turbo rear valence allows for more muffler clearance pretty much? Coz I will most likely keep my OEM tip unless they have a nicer tip for cheap hehehe.

If you could take a video of your car taking off to hear what the exhaust sounds like in that situation that would be greatly appreciated...

Here are some pics of my car right now... I'm also considering getting H&R springs to lower it a bit.

 

Nice car, Like the Gemballa!! =)
Anyway, here you go..

Hendrady...

Funny... I saw your car today at school parked in PSA... what are the odds that you go to my same school? LOL... anyways, your car looks hotter in person! And the Techart exhaust tips are HUGE. Anyways, are you running on OEM springs?

 

HAHA.. yeah.. I parked at PSA level 6 today. I had my Socio Final Today... Do you always park there? No, they are Techart Springs(cut). =)

 

Hehehehe I'm getting Techart springs next January... did you get them from Arling too?

Yeah I always park in PSA... though I usually commute on a blue WRX STI.

So I've decided to get the custom exhaust at AAA Exhausts and use the Fabspeed dual tip for CS. Not sure if I'll go with the Magnaflow or the Elite mufflers though... Hendrady, is the Magnaflow also polished mirror surface?

I'll be going to the shop on Monday to see what would look better and what my price would be ... I'll try to get something close to $550 like you .

 

did anyone list to the so called 4S lol
