** SOLD ** - RS4 B7 Saloon - huge OEM spec & mods

[neilparf]

A subtle bump...

[FaisalJ]

How has nobody bought this yet?

I reckon the exhaust is putting people off Neil.

Wanna swap?

No idea Faisal. She's a gem.

Ha! I think the exhaust is the finer feature

Go on, get your bread van up to Wellingborough!

[Surrey Sam]

Mrs Faisal will hate me, actually she probably does already but...

Faisal should make you a reasonable offer + OEM zorst for the JCW, you can then drop the price by that associated figure to an 'even' keener one.

[R1RS4]

Sounds a good idea Sam, or did you keep the original Neil and sell the JCW

If Mrs J hates it, that's normally a good indicator that the idea's a good one!

Neil - In all seriousness, would you be open to such an arrangement? There's a custom exhaust place near me that could take care of the swap.

[neilparf]

Guys, cheers for the offer, but I didn't keep the OEM one. The JCWF system is still on the car.

The JCWF is not the issue I believe - I've had messages about the car and each one has said the exhaust is a plus point.

Faisal, do you have an OEM system then to switch out?

I think I'd prefer to see it go with the system in it, but PM your thoughts Faisal in what you'd be looking to offer and we could have a chat...

[FaisalJ]

It's a modified OEM system; custom downpipes with precats deleted and using the main 200 cell cats, X-pipe centre instead of centre silencer, OEM backboxes and tips.

PM on its way...

Thanks Faisal - that's actually pretty similar to the JCWF in principal; their downpipes, pre cat delete and X-pipe and the Audi 200 CEL cats spun 180 degrees to eliminate the CEL error (MRC map equally took care of that) into thier back boxes and valves...

Let's PM each other. But, I do think though if I was going with this exercise then I'd have to return it back to the complete OEM exhaust system to allay any potential concerns a buyer may have regarding aftermarket exhausts - if indeed that is the sticking point.

A newbie wouldn't necessarily know the JCWF system is a better well made system or equally someone wanting a bit more OEM would maybe want that factory system back in place...

Hear what you are saying Sam - but Faisal's system isn't OEM and I think for the reasons I've posted above, it would have to be OEM to allay any concerns a buyer may have in my opinion. I have the stage 2 map also and an OEM system with a stage 2 map (albeit maybe de catted) wouldn't go together in my mind as a modified RS4.

I think completely OEM is great or well considered modified and well executed over OEM has appeal too...

Reduced so I can free the cash...

yes, Jay - Failsal was saying this to try and coerce me into selling the JCWF system to him which I know he REALLY wants

Cheers Jay, I think it's a pretty well spec'd example now...

Absolutely, I was just pulling Neil's leg.

Now that he's told me (politely) to do one, I can say in all honesty the JCWF is a huge asset to the car. Whoever buys this should consider themselves very lucky.

Forum banter, Faisal - it's all good and thanks

Indeed the JCWF is a great system and not than many with one fitted
