PCW Exhaust Mods. Cool videos.
Ingenious business idea!

What are peoples opinion on removing the stock exhaust, cut open the boxes(on the top so MOT people won't notice) remove all the extra stuff inside and re-route the piping inside if needed to get straight flow before welding it back together..

It sure would be cheap parts

There was was a vid on YouTube showing the exact results. I do know that I had a straight through design rear box with an H-pipe and the drone was horrific. Worst at motorway speeds, which was very annoying.

It's quite a complex standard box. I would imagine partly to eliminate the drone.

He removed all the internal pipework, simplified it and fitted a tiny silencer on one side. This is the result:

A8freunde member Tennohund modified his exhaust by removing the H-pipe and putting straight through pipes (I think) through all the boxes.
He achieved a very nice sound (IMO).

I cant find the original post on A8freunde forum where he posted pictures of the modifications, but he has re-posted a picture on another forum.

There were several youtube videos with apparently no serious drone.
Only one video remains its been re-posted after the owner deleted the originals. This one does not show in cabin so can't judge for drone.

I copied the photo from the other forum for future reference in case the thread gets deleted.

Ahh yes, Tennohund, I remember now. I did wonder where all his videos had gone. He showed some stills at the beginning of a video showing what the inside looked like.

It does sound great.
