[200q20v] 200q20v] Boost?.was: ECU upgrade question..now exhaust question

[Claus Vegener]

I have a dual cat back from BN-Pipes, Germany, slightly
narrow' than 3".
The silencer is a blow through and not so restrictive
(and heavy) as the original.
It is installed in order to handle 400 HP.
The exhaust is more pronounced at low frequencies.

I happens to come to Copenhagen now and then 
but live near Aarhus
and my 200 q Avant is brown.
Look at the audifans registry - the only from DK.
There is also a link to my old homepage with pictures
of the car.
