Default New Exhaust Installed (new to me)

Just had the Cargraphic Medium exhaust installed on Saturday and must say... when this car goes, I'll miss the exhaust the most.

Oh no no... it's not getting sold. Sorry for the confusion on how I wrote that post... what I meant was that someday, when ever that day will be, I will really miss the way the car sounds now with the Cargraphic.

Although, business has been very trying the past year... let's hope it doesn't come to that.

HANG ON to the OEM exhaust and sell the Cargraphic if and when you sell the car....that's what I intend to do with my Europipe. It's not difficult to change out the exhaust...even use the same metal O gasket. Those exhausts are good items.

Cargraphic exhausts sound fantastic on a Pcar.

What about interior noise? Specificly "drone" noise.

No drone with Europipe...but you ask a good question and it's something you need to research before you buy any particular system. Some folks will say their's doesn't drone, then you'll find other posts that has the same model for sale because the drone is intolerable. Do a search here and on 6 Speed and RennTech and you'll find comments on the ones that drone. Some guys can tolerate it because the exhaust is loud and they want that level of noise....but I've driven several TT's when I was looking to buy and the first thing I noticed was drone....which usually comes on at around 2800-3000 rpm....right at the spot where you cruise. Drove me nuts.

There is no drone with the Cargraphic (Medium). It is somewhat louder that stock and has a really beautiful wail at WOT. Not for guys who want piece and quiet in there cars, but not at all annoying in any way. The actual part is built like a rock and mine has these beautiful and all business looking tips.

On a side note... I just might have to sell it, so stay tuned. This would bum me out, but things are as they are...
