[urq] Audis as Collectibles...Scorpion exh.

[William Elliott]

I'm considering an exhaust upgrade at some point (after an intercooler
upgrade).

It appears to me that adding a large diameter cat-back system wouldn't
greatly increase flow.  I like Scott's idea of a 3" hi-flow cat, but
where could one find an appropriate downpipe?
