Dan,
Car sounds phenominal. I am trying to decide between Ruf and Europipe.
Does the Europipe have any resonances when driving?
Was the install straight forward, especially the (4) sensors?
Thanks for any info.

Dan,
great to hear from you as from cjv that you are happy with EP <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />
What are the main differences you ahve noticed compared to EVO?
Is the decrease in the backpressure something you can really feel? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />
Any chance to post a video on motion or under hard acceleration?
I was sure that EP was one of the best choice in the market and your comments are confirming it to me...thanks!
Can't wait to buy it!!! <img border="0" alt="[jumper]" title="" src="graemlins/jumper.gif" />
Enjoy it <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/beerchug.gif" />
Ciao,
Andrea

Oh boy!... Sounds just great! 
BTW, to have even more fun, you should once try to engage the reverse-gear and gently release the clutch. The car will not only sound good, but will also move!

That sounds great
I am very interested in fitting one of these, but can one of you more techie guys tell me if I also need ECU mods to get the maximum benefit?
I have an X50 by the way.
Edited to say: Is there much difference between the EP and the X50's exhaust anyway? I understood that changes are made to the X50 system...

I'M not sure what the catalytic converter setup is in the UK, but in the US, all TT exhausts (OEM) have 2 banks of catalytic converters, a large 5 inch, what I call an overkill converter that is not monitored by the DME and a small 2.5 inch main cat, that is monitored by the #1 and #2 O2 sensors (it offers some restriction but not that much)
The internals of the X-50 pipes have larger resonator openings and is relatively free flowing. It is not what I would call by any means a performance exhaust. Too many bends and a small exhaust opening (63.5 mm) I think I got the conversion right this time. <img src="http://www.egri.co.uk/smileys/dork.gif" alt=" - " />
