This is a W comment. After a few exhaust’s installed under my belt, I figured I would be certified to do it properly. Unfortunately we all make mistakes. Thankfully I can share that with my audience to not make the same mistake.

Love all the vids you've done on this platform! Major inspiration for my own B9. Quick question - what taillight tints did you use? its a nice level of tint where its not too dark.
Nope. It’s actually probably the best cheap mod you can do for more noise on the stock cat without drone. However if you’re willing to spend 300$+ I would recommend the entire IE exhaust instead as that’s going to definitely transform your B9 without having to cut the exhaust to put an x pipe in.
I got exhaust tips on mine. Curious to know where you got all the work done? Once mine is out of warranty I’ll consider. Not the exhaust though. Less noise the better for me
Because it’s a catless downpipe. A High flow cat would take care of all the resonance. However I want the turbo to be louder and the exhaust to rip, catless is the way to go for me.
I don't know if you saw but IE just released a similar exhaust for the B9 S4 and they also have the same dronetrap technology, how good has it been in your experience?
IE’s exhaust is arguably one of the highest quality and best sounding exhaust systems. For the money I was kind of blown away honestly. Obviously I haven’t installed or heard the B9 S4 specific exhaust yet but considering the fact that their exhaust had zero drone and even made the hybrid turbo sound more appealing with a better louder whistle.. is what made me keep it on the car. I do suggest going with their pro core high flow cat to pair up with their exhaust system.
How can it be a cold start if it was installed in the garage and now is sitting outside on the opposite side of the garage? Sounds good but already get complaints from my neighbors and I have the CTS catted dp (stage II).
When I installed the exhaust, I started it up, and I’m not sure if the engine was still fairly warm, but it went right into an idle vs an actual cold start. I decided it was better to let the car cool over night and then actually show a real cold start once the car was completely Cold. I had complaints as well, unfortunately.
looking at getting the IE mid pipes for my b9.5 S5 and potentially a DP down the line. Would you say the mid pipes and stock dp is noticeably louder/better sounding? would a DP change much with stock mufflers and mid section resonator?
Just doing the mid pipes with give your car more tone. However the downpipe is the biggest change you can do. I would say do only downpipe for now, and go from there if you want more noise. IE has an exhaust coming for the S5!
Bro, nice! I have an SQ2018 as well and when I start the engine after the night, I see a white smoke comming out. After 10 sec it's gonce completely. Then I can't reproduce it anyway (during high revs, warmed or cold). Do you have the same? Thanks
Did IE include a plug for the OE exhaust valve to protect it from the elements? As for Audi only having one valve on one side, it they had a valve on both sides the exhaust would be completely closed! :)
Well if Audi had a valve on both sides, you can open both in dynamic and let it rip, and close both in comfort to keep it mellow. This is actually how the one valve works. IE doesn’t include a plug. You can just zip tie the cable up and leave the old exhaust valve hidden out of sight.
@@Need4Built There is only 1 exhaust outlet per side. If there was a valve on both sides then the exhaust would be completely closed off in comfort mode. My wife's Golf R has a valve on each side, but that car also has 4 exhaust outlets.
Yes I did. Bought this car right before my little guy was born. It fit perfectly. Front passenger had more than enough leg room actually. At least for my wife. The front facing car seat however, is much better.
Rewatch it in 4k now that it’s available. Worth it, I promise. I think it must’ve been 20-30 minutes too early due to the HD/4K having needed extra time to upload.

loving it so far, ill come back for part 2 after i eat lunch. since it is unlikely any of my own subs will see this.. i have a new mod coming in a couple days. a good one. (not exhaust tho)
Also using anti seize on downpipe bolts if you plan to take them off one day is also a good idea. 😂 we tried that before 2 of the bolts stripped. This was just crappy hardware supplied by CTS.
My love for Audi’s and jealously to absolutely obliterate the famous Porsche Turbo GT. I did. I do a little more explaining in a previous video of mine:
Both of your applications sounded awesome to me. But excuse me for being uneducated on the exhaust systems. But aren't catless exhaust illegal and can't you even have your car impounded for taking them off ?
I wish I had the chance to dyno the car before and after the exhaust install, the butt dyno however is some what reliable and is telling me there’s a little more from the 810. That’s just me. Can’t prove it. Sounds insane however. I might play around with some idea’s I have.
I found a local quiet garage. There’s never any cars on the upper floors. So there’s usually a few car guys hanging out there doing launches inside or just reviving it up. Glad you enjoyed the content 💪🏼 Causing some mayhem
Yooo nice video! I completely agree with just a high flow cat/catless + stock valved exhaust sounds great and super cost effective. A big selling point of the B9 for me was how easy it is to make it sound awesome (especially compared to the B8.5 lol). But wow that IE exhaust does sound amazing - and makes that 810 sound even more beastly!! Also LMAO @ "Stock exhaust is made out of stock exhaust"
Stock exhaust is stock. Correct. My knowledge right now 📈📈📈 The B9 SQ5 just sounds so good. There’s something about the engine itself that has that exhaust noise edge over the B8.5. The hybrid turbo gives it a little bit of an advantage with those wooshy noises 🤓
Yup! CTS provided that hardware. Clearly is sucks. Now that I have it replaced however, should make my life a little easier if I ever have to change it again.

You mentioned in this video the ECS X pipe is droney with your catless DP. Do you know/think it would be droney with the stock catted DP?
