I have one myself. These things are one of the few cars that still sound good from a simple straight pipe. Does it drone at all?

I've done a back box delete on mine and it drones alot so a straight pipe will be a nightmare

Nice sound! May I ask the set-up? Is it a full system? Does it still utilize the valved exhaust and vacuum in the mufflers? I have the JHM Downpipe xpipe combo with stock resonator and mufflers. I am unsure of the rest of the JHM exhaust. Looking at options. This sounds nice and warm, low rasp and loud. I would love to know more about it.

in his other video, it looks like its just a single pipe after the magnaflow mufflers so no more ability to switch between quiet and loud modes.

How are you liking the JHM Downpipe with stock exhaust? I was thinking of going that route.

@@jruss3232 For increased performance; 7 out of 10. For sound upgrade from OE; 4 out of 10. You can hear a difference once you start up; but it actually sounds cleaner, more so than OE. It sounds just like what it is; new, slightly wider pipes. The X-pipe being put closer to the engine, which is what JHM did, does sound different once you step on the gas and get up into the 4000+ rpm's. What they don't tell you; they have to remove the black transmission cap?, for lack of better word. All I know is I do not have what was put on the bottom of my car anymore. You can see video's of the Audi RS5 exhausts being put on and see what I am talking about. I. think that all the other's have not placed the x-pipe there because of this. However, it has not injured my car in any way. Probably doesn't need to be there, just something they put there on the bottom of the car to protect from debris. - SO, 4-10 for sound, but better increase in performance. Seems faster! I just got a ECS Xpipe put on and now it is as loud as a Capristo. IT is VERY loud! I am worried I am going to get a ticket. IT's been less than 24 hours and I see cops now and worry that they will pull me over. Super loud! IF you want to go loud, you can save a lot of money and get this combo or maybe find another combo. You cannot lose. JHM has a good product and it did sound better but I wanted more... as do most. I am still considering getting the rest of the JHM exhaust. The ECS x pipe was a temporary solution for this summer. Maybe I will keep it, it does sound really loud and wonderful. I am worried to put it in sport around cops now. And the cold-start has already pissed off my neighbors.

@@dylanbond1627 Sounds great! I bet it sounds even better in person. Great! I went with the resonator delete as well. I went the other way than you. I kept the stock mufflers and replaced the downpipe and put in an x pipe (JHM), then deleted the resonator. The sound coming out of my car went from a 4 to 10 out of 10 since I got the resonator deleted. It's almost too loud if there is such a thing. I have to get video's on this channel. I haven't had time to figure out how to get them on here. Is it difficult?

I'm a 2013 RS5 owner with only xpipes, but I usually love Magnaflow, so I'm very happy to know that this sounds nice. I wonder what Magnaflow mufflers you have. . .

they're short and round, like a typical resonator, but a little bigger. Dunno if that helps. I've had Magnaflows on 3 different cars, all different models of muffler, and they all sounded great.
