We'll definitely have to meet up soon! Maybe even this Saturday or Sunday?
I'm thinking it's closer to the Dinan or Borla sound level, vs AWE, but I'm loving it so far!
I have it with the AA Catted downpipe and love it. It would be more raspy & have more burbles/pops with the AA downpipe vs stock downpipe. I wasn't able to find much for clips on the AA exhaust either, I found someone with intake + downpipe and checked their IG and fell in love with the sound
Yes, I have the Active Autowerke's Catted Downpipe with AA's high flow cat, as well as the Dinan intake + inlet.
I only have a start up in a garage, so wouldn't be anything that would help much. Don't have any driving, fly by or rev clips yet.
It honestly seems very tame when you want it to...
Installed the Active Autowerke's Catback exhaust. Appeared to be missing some hardware, but was able to source some from elsewhere. Maybe me and my friends were just slow, but we couldn't initially get it to sit connected without making contact with that bottom cross brace, so we left that off...
I got pretty lucky. It was the exact spec I wanted, in terms of color, trim, transmission (manual), and barely any add ons (less than $250 worth). It was in state got it & got it for $950 under MSRP. Approximately 55 miles away. I did finance with them, but that was to meet the exact amount...
Keep in mind, there is a chance it isn't the cat triggering the light and could be an 02 sensor. Reason I mention it is, if it's not the cat and is the 02, the light will just come back on most likely anyways. So I'd see what code it actually threw and go from there
I won't have it for probably a week, if not closer to 2 depending on shipping and when I can get a buddy to help.
I don't anticipate it being quiet on cold start, as none of the aftermarket exhausts seem to be, but hoping since it's valved, it's reasonable
Update after 250+ miles.
Dinan Intake & inlet: Took the lid off the intake and it made a world of difference, sound wise. Highly recommend if you want more induction sound from the the intake/inlet combo. Very happy with it now.
AA Catted Downpipe w/ AA cat: After driving a bit more, there...
Just installed the AA Catted Downpipe with the AA high flow cat today. Installed the Dinan Carbon fiber cold air intake with carbon inlet about 5 days ago.
Definitely helps give a little more turbo noises, but part of me kinda wished I went Armaspeed for the intake/inlet tbh, but I'll try...
Awesome! Thanks for the response!
That's great to hear! Thank you for the response! Tough choice, but sounds like there may not be a "wrong" choice with these 2!
This is a good video, but a few things.
1) they mention in this video, but don't actually offer different tips styles from what I've seen.
2) Same goes for the mention about an Atak version and an S-Type version, there's only 1, which is with the atak style muffler.
I had an S-Type on my 23'...
Does anyone have the Active Autowerke's Catback with the Catted DP? If so, any complaints? Such as drone, valve rattle, etc.
I feel like I'm mostly leaning Towards AA, then Dinan if not. If I went non-valved, I'm 99% certain I'd go AWE, but I'm hesitant even the touring with resonators would be...
