Best exhaust options for B9 RS4
Best exhaust options for B9 RS4
Ok, so the sound of the RS exhaust and the interior enhanced sound isn’t exactly doing it for me.
Coming from flat six Porsche’s, I would like a more genuine sound from the exhaust / engine.
Anyone out there feel they’ve got the best solution...... or could point me to company offering such.
Not looking for mental crazy noise, but more a natural enhancement.
Cheers

Re: Best exhaust options for B9 RS4
We share the same engine so I feel (or felt) your pain! The sound is the worst thing on the cars and to me on a performance halo mode it’s unacceptable and a common gripe.
Anyhow I had a Milltek non res race fitted to my RS5-had the sports exhaust fitted previously.

Well worth doing and essential imo.

Re: Best exhaust options for B9 RS4
Whereas one of the things I like about it is its discrete and doesnt attract attention. My Son in Law had a C43 coupe and a GLC 43 and both were way too loud for my liking. Apparently my M5 was quite loud as well but I couldnt hear it in the car!stevo55 wrote: ↑Tue Oct 27, 2020 11:10 amWe share the same engine so I feel (or felt) your pain!

So I am hoping that the sound doesnt attract too much attention, in which case it will be one of the best things!

Milltek do a resonated Exhaust that isn’t as loud as the non res one.Isleaiw wrote:Whereas one of the things I like about it is its discrete and doesnt attract attention.

Failing that you could go to PCW and get them to remove parts of the exhaust to get the sound you’ll be happy with? Cheaper route than any decent aftermarket exhaust as they are working with what’s fitted to the car.
Exhaust note is the USP of AMG’s though, having said that the one on my old A45 just sounded crap. You can only do so much with a small engine though.

The supersprint sounds great from the videos I've heard. Very tempted

Re: Best exhaust options for B9 RS4
The Supersprint stuff is imported from Italy, probably needs buying before we leave the Custom's union and UK import duty is added to the cost....

Hi Stevo
Thanks for putting the videos up.
I’m liking the sound of yours with the flaps closed, but the pops and bangs seem a bit extreme with them open.... how do you find the two modes from inside the cabin ??
Have you done anything about the false sound that gets pumped into the car ??
Cheers
Shaun

It’s not a drony noise (just put it in comfort if you wish) and you can hear a big difference in the sound when dynamic/individual (if you have DRC). It sounds more ‘real’ as opposed to the enhanced noise piped in. Most of the German brands do this save AMG I think and it’s just naff imo.
It’s louder in any mode and pretty full on in attack mode but that’s why I put the exhaust on to be honest! The resonated Milltek is more civilised I guess-there’s a few YT comparison videos out there.
