It lives!
But that exhaust sure is awful quiet. I thought you were going for louder. It sounds really good, just quiet.
Edit: Oppps, forgot to turn the volume up.

the lifters are making quite a bit of noise in the first vid, after about a minute they quieted down, the stock A4 c5's are simply dogs w/out a high stall t/c and gears, the new RPM trans and 3.90's take away the typical A4 4800rpm WOT shift, baawww, bawwww, baaaaaaaaawww(the 3rd baawww in REAL slow motion), no more of that stock configuration nonsense, now it's like dropping from 5th to 3rd in stick car(i will still have to make fun of the A4 crowd, might have to get one myself, i'll keep a low profile

As Connecticut said, the lifters needed to pump up, the rockers needed to be oiled etc. After the initial start and idle, we shut down and checked fluids etc. Second start it was nice and quiet under the hood
