Straight pipe as in two parallel pipes from the middle box to the tailpipes, Just like Neil's although I'll make the join in the straight section. Its perfectly MoT friendly - as long as its not leaking or ear-bleedingly loud they don't care what boxes go where. That would be important in Germany though as TÜV does care that the stock exhaust is still intact (unless you have paperwork for a certified aftermarket system) so Tennohund's mod makes sense in that context.

55mm stainless is a pain to get hold of and has to come from Germany as everything in the UK is imperial sizes. A4 TDI exhausts are 55mm though so I may just cut one of those up and re-use that to make the join and then weld that to some standard 57mm stainless. Tailpipe choice is the next thing to figure out, as the S8's stock tip is a bit weedy by modern standards. I'm thinking a couple of 75mm black chrome Q5 tailpipes might look quite nice instead
