 That work of art Sportec I put on an RS6 a couple years ogo is the best sounding I've heard to date.  The Custom 3in stromung (ala stromung S car but with two incoming pipes to the 3in) I just put onto a C4 v8 5pd wagon makes some great melodious sounds as well.   At steamboat last week, it made the dual 2.5in exhaust of the LT1Q sound out of tune.

A properly done exhaust on the Audi motors can be awe inspiring to the ears.  I'm still partial to 3in systems attached to the I5 though.  Something about that extra offbeat cylinder that still catches the ear.

3in exhaust aplenty

Something to look forward to then... the //S6 V10 I did an exhaust on 

yesterday mit tip very happily rev-matched downshifts just as well as a DSG 

car. Upshifts were amazingly good too BTW. Oh, and //S6 V10 with Miltek 

exhaust is somply the best sounding car EVER. No seriously, EVER!
