Default Anyone have LT and Corsa Exhaust on an A4?

Has anyone put the Corsa Sport system on their 2005 A4 after installing long tube headers?

Any drone and if so at approximately what RPMs?
How loud at cruising speed?
How loud at idle?
Do you wake the dead when you put your foot into it?

Thanks.

I am having LTs put on my 2006 C6 on Tuesday, but that is a manual tranny.

I'll be posting up about drone then after a long highway cruise home if it helps you any.

I installed Melrose Headers, Random Hi-Flo Cats, X-Pipe with Corsa Sports but only briefly. I had started the car, revved it up a few times and decided it was TOO loud and shut it down and too off the Corsas and reinstalled the stock mufflers! Believe it or not!? But honestly, I should have driven it around for a week first to have given it a chance because now I feel I jumped the gun on that one and reacted too soon. Now I'm considering a Borla Touring system but damn, are they expensive!!!

Did you sell yours on ebay by any chance???

The guy I bought mine from was from Florida also.

That was why he sold his also.

Purple Heart, this is the setup that I have. So even at idle it was MUCH louder? You didn't drive it at all? I'd sure be interested in hearing about the Borlas when you get them installed. Thanks.

I have LG pros high flow cats and corsa sport on an A6. Drones a little at 1600 rpm's. Sounds real good at WOT.

yell03, no, I didn't. I traded mine it to the shop who sold me my headers and hi-flo cats & x-pipe who, in turn, resold them to another vette owner in a local corvette club called the Tampa Bay Posse Corvette Club-unless you live locally and belong to that club...

Sure, but that's a big IF AND WHEN, if you know what I mean. right now I'm about to order LCD lighting for under the car for night car shows and a mild cam and have that installed next month. so, the Borlas, at least for now, are on the back burner.

Nope, I am up here in PA.

Actually, the guy I bought mine from said he had them on for 2 weeks and 400 miles now that I think of it.

I'll find out today why he sold them after the Headers go on.

I've had long tubes and the Corsa Sport exhaust for about eight months now. DynaTech/SuperMaxx to be exact. I also am running an A4.
Definite drone when under slight to moderate load around 15-1900 rpm's, but nowhere else.
Slightly louder than stock...my wife thinks WAY louder.
Great sound at idle, again slightly louder than stock.
Great warble when decelerating with backpressure, pops pretty good.
Yes! Under full throttle, people will know you're there...or were there to be more accurate!
