Jeff,

Clown?  I think spending $1700 on an exhaust for a $5000 car would make me a
clown.  JC was right, I just asked about how Stromungs were obtained.  I
remember seeing posts about gathering orders for the system leading me to
believe that they were not available all the time.  Excuse me for inquiring.

But since you opened the dialogue, $1700 is just plain too much.  It is an
old Audi, not a Ferrari.  So what if its better than a Borla, Brullen or
whatever.  The differences are minor and I could care less.  My car is a dd
and I (as some other folks here) will not realize the minor (if any)
performance gains over another aftermarket exhaust.

So I don't see the value in your holier than God exhaust system, BFD.  I did
not put it down in any way (until now - cost).

LIGHTEN UP, Francis.

Dave, I think you gotta realize this post mortem equine has had foot repeatedly applied to it on this List over sooooooo many years - Jeff's reply was 'to the point'.

You want $$$?  Price a Ferrari exhaust.  Or heck even a BMW system for Eisenmann.  Try $5-7k (or more).  Suddenly $1,700 (which they're not btw) is a "bargain".  It's def. not so much about perf. gain as it is aural / aesthetic.  Spool up / flow is added benny.

Remember, this is the S-Car-List - we're gentlemanly here.
