I think you're right young man, I'm still badgering the wife to allow me to fit a Milltek and last week I had a (louder RS4 taipipe look) custom exhaust fitted to my C1 daily drive :bigblink: - which also has an RS 04 xxx numper plate. Sad eh?

Cheers. Well the droning had just been doing my head in, fancy maybe either one of two things, sticking a resonated section in or putting an OEM system back on. Remember I have Milltek Cats with the free flow down pipes so mines slightly louder as it is.

Im going to be starting my track day project soon, so not going to be tracking the RS any more. So I can get my loud kick from that.

Sonny if you put your seats back in then it won't be half as bad

Good to hear you got a track project, best way forward. Details?

No edge not back to stock, just the seats and track day wheels. I was always going to put the oem air box back in at a later stage anyway. The car will then stay as it is as its perfectly set up.

Good mate thank you!

Milly has developed cracks over time so has been in for some touch up surgery now and again. Tim, who looks after the car was saying they really aren't as good quality as they used to be and should be at the prices they are charging.

Still, the combo does sound good! I sometimes think I could do with something more subtle but then people literally stop me in the street to say how nice it sounds....

Looking at getting into fast, subtle diesels at the moment, but just can't think of a car that would make me as happy as the RS!!

How are you mate?

Will
