Others have remarked however that the turbos spool up faster and it reaches boost faster. I'll let you know if there is a significant difference once installed.

The EP price is completely in line with all the rest, around the 4k mark. Remember, the euro has taken a dive, now that 6k exhaust is 4k-ish.
There are several great exhausts on the market, some I love, others I don't. Maybe I'll put up a thread on the subject...
I will say the EP is the most OEM-ish available.

Have my heart set on one as well... It will be the only mod I plan to have. I am also very happy with stock, but I am also after the sound and the modest improvement is a plus... I am euro based anyway. I am hoping to come across one in Europe at some stage. There was a stage 2 for sale in the UK but I got scared of the sound. I prefer more than stock but not head turning...

They are mounted correctly. They angle the video was taken at give a real poor perspective on how the fit looks. The gap you see to the outer side on the tip looks very exaggerated in the picture and of course is shaped to fit the OEM tip the best. Even the dual round tips leave an odd gap on the outer side give the OEM shape of the hole. The picture gives the impression as the were mounted upside down, but when you see it in person, the fit looks totally different. I thought the same when i was looking at purchasing the system, but very pleased when I saw it in person. It's definitely a different look than the norm, but thats why I like it. Believe it or not...it does go well with the look of the car.
I see you're from LI....not sure where, but PM me if you're ever looking to stretch the legs on the TT's...always looking cruise with an TT owners.

I watched the video on thier website and am still a little confused. The photography isn't that clear but it looks like the tips in the video are the same shape as the bumper opening and completely fill the opening - you can see them move as the engine is revved. Maybe the video is a prototype?

The tips shown in Chris' post # 23 above and those shown in the video above are not the same.
