[urq] I see the middle muffler goes for 600 to $750 from Audi

[Brandon Rogers]

I think I'd skip the OE center section - I like them with the center
resonator removed - a little louder - more throat - so it's really just a
pipe.  Next time I need one I'll try to just have my end flanges welded to a
new pipe.  But if you like the quiet exhaust and keep the center - yeah get
one while you can.

857 253 409a.   I think mine will probably go in a few years.  Does it make
any sense to buy it now from Audi (if even available).   A few years ago I
looked a urq for sale where a shop probably had just made up the middle
muffler section, probably for less money, but it looked to me like it was
just an inch too long and the hangers looked like they were stretched a bit
to much and it looked like a probable headache for the new owner to be.  
Buying in advance means I can get it before it goes NLA  and maybe before
Audi raised the price by another $100.  
I'm not worried about the rear muffler - there seem to be some good options
there. steve
