Here's my setup, catless downpipes, EL resonated mid paired with the MPE. I'm extremely happy with the final result.



How much do you get any turbo spool from the exhaust? Do you have tuning to keep the CEL off or are restrict or adapters working? Sounds good!

I was thinking ideally I'd want the Low RPM grunt of the AA Single midpipe AND the Higher pitch howl in the Higher RPMs of the EL-

Maybe you can achieve equal length in a shorter distance somehow, exiting into a single midpipe?

Would be interesting for someone with the resources and skillset.
My friend and I will be doing that to mine when the time comes but I was just wondering if anyone else has attempted it just to get some more ideas. I'm honestly not a fan of anything the companies making the exhausts have to offer, also I will be going a twin muffler system and completely remove the valve system if that is possible.

With the catless downpipe, do you hear the turbo more through the exhaust? I'm just curious how audible it got, if at all.

Oh you're asking is there more turbo spool? There's always more spool the more "open" your exhaust is.

I read it like "how do you get any spool (turbos don't spool)" I was like huh!??

Can we get some more videos of the spooling?

before I added a new back section I was looking for more sound as well etc. You can have the valves forced in the in the open position etc. I did by disconnecting at the muffler / there are a number of vids out there etc.

for clarity the stock exhaust has the different modes but fully opened under acceleration etc. So you can have the vales fully opened all the time which will give you more volume and not have to wait for full acceleration. this vid does a good job explaining etc.

It's open the most often in S+, but not all the time. I would say it's open more often than not, though. Whereas in Sport it feels more like 50-50, and efficient is very rarely open.

In all modes, the variables for opening are throttle position, rpm, and engine load.
