Here are a few short YouTube likes with the new DP's installed.
The DP's add a bit deeper exhaust note as far as sound goes...

Let me know what you think?
Thx

 
Cool vids!  Thanks for posting!

I had the same impression on sound... as well as a bit more authoritative sound when the car is given a bit of throttle.

Did you notice a bit more low end power?  The turbos should be spooling 500-700 rpm's sooner now with your DPs...well below 2000 rpm.

I'll be interested in your dyno results Monday and the position of the spike at the start of the curve.
 
I like it.
Did you leave the stock cat and res in between the axle back and down pipes?

Surprised to hear it be as raspy as it was. Still not as bad as the bare x pipe with stock muffs. Raspy in a much different way.
I'm guessing some of this is due to the recording?
 
Sounds like it was cold. I've got some pretty large turbos on my G35 set up, and a TD 3" set up. You get a little bit of rasp when it's cold, once oil is up to temp you really don't hear any of it.

Unless maybe you're a few inches away from the pipes while it's driving :)

Sounds the way a 3.5 TT should.

You are right on the money BigMac! The power comes on very quickly VERY early! Our shop XSport has the exact same setup and the 1st time I drove it I was floored. And the tone I agree is pretty sick.

Our Thunderstorm DP and Thunderstorm CB systems actually come equipped with our race cats.
