Cool muffler/resonator

yesterday i cut off my stock muffler and put on a dynomax high flow. i wanted to use magnaflow but could not find any with an offset inlet, anyways the car sounds exactly the same, like nothing! i wanted to give the car some sound this is why i put the muffler on in the first place. on a positive note i did notice a small increase in low end power tho. i am wondering if there is anything i can do with the resonator to give me some sound without being obnoxiously loud. was thinking maybe a strait through glass pack? dont know how that would sound but anyone has some ideas or similar setups let me know

When I put my Remus on it almost sounded stock so I just straight up removed my Res and now it sounds beautiful. YouTube Audi Remus 2.8 if you like

dont do glass pack. just get rid of your res and youll be fine. you still have your cats so it will sound good.

I have a Magnaflow 14816 with custom piping and a Vibrant 12" perf-core resonator. Deep and ballsy-sounding. When you come to the next meet you'll be able to hear a few different setups. Wait til then to make your choice.

Sounds awesome I just put two Remus sports on mine I have a 98 A6 2.8 30v. But it doesn't sound like that at all, it got all raspy when I took out my resonators... might be the glass pack type of Remus I bought...

I removed my resonator for that exact same reason. i put on a magnaflow 14815 and could barely tell the difference. it sounds amazing now and i love it, but beware that you may get some drone inside the car around 60mph. i know i did. other than that just that bitch off man you will love it.
