I have been reading through the threads on exhaust, ect,,, Seems like the largest restriction is the cats, so if i remove those and put some straight pipes in, then do the tune so i don't have a check engine light i should get the sound i am looking for with performance increase and no cel...
my question on this route is,,,,, I can still close my valves and make the car a little quieter if i want correct?
Seems like i could go this route for about $4k depending on the pipes i choose,,,,,,,,,,, any feedback on this plan?

What I've learned from doing this piece by piece is that for the most part cats affect volume and the aftermarket center piece affects tone/pitch.
If you just do pass throughs it will make it louder, and you'll hear a lot more turbo whistle.

No CEL, right? I’ve heard good things about the Europipe cats.

Another inexpensive option is buy the APR Ultralink for $129 then spend $199 for their exhaust valve mod and see how you like it. If you then want to tune you can buy theirs right through the Ultralink. I think that's the cheapest "real" way to to your exhaust valve mod and still retain your PSE button the way it is. If you don't like it they have a 30-day warranty. That's my plan with my T then the tune. Just used the UL for my wife's 718 S, super easy. Not dissing any other tunes or mods, just the route we chose to go with our P-cars.
My understanding was that you had to use their ECU Tune first, then the Exhaust Valve Mod was an optional add-on.
Thanks in advance for any clairlification.

Can someone confirm that the APR Exhaust Valve Mod tune can be used independently of their ECU Tunes? Meaning it can be used by itself?
