Wondered the same thing...Did you listen to the MBRP exhaust...as they are made specifically for the A6

I had the magnaflow comp axle back and now have the Flowmaster AT cat back on my L99. It has a very nice throaty sound at start up and through acceration. It is notloud in the cabin at all. Very easy to carry on a conversation in. Only downside is a little increased drone at first but it diminishes as it wares in or you get used to it. I love the system. The only thing I miss was the 5" tips from the Magnaflow. Hope this helps. You can see my install on powerTV and LSXTV.

i listened to the many exhaust system , but the sound clips not like reial sound because the sound of the exhaust is changing day by day and you don't know they just installed that time or before months ..

IMO they all make noise in the cabin while driving. The FlowMaster has a lower tone, but is still very noticeable inside.

At highway cruise speed I honestly think it is quieter than stock. I can't hear mine at all.....until I get my high flow midpipes that is .

but not like my magnaflow 3'' , it hase a huge sound inside the cabin while driving slowly.. i think this catback is good for manual gear

If you do not tune out AFM magnaflow will give you issues....consider corsa if you want cat back..borla if you want axle

yes ,, i know that corsa is best for L99 , but i'm looking to another one with a same quiet sound inside the cabin and cheaper ..

I understand you are....but I am telling you (and I do not have a corsa only from hearing the product and testimony among C5 members) it is worth the extra hundred or so to go corsa, because there are not many brands (if any) that will compare to how quiet in cabin the Corsa is that still offers a great sound to the exterior.....and unfortunately magnaflow or flowmaster won't compare to corsa with that respect. They have great sounds and I love that deeper sound...that is why I told myself "screw it, I'll deal with drone" and went with the borla.

All I am saying is if in cabin sound is your main concern borla, magnaflow and flowmaster aren't your answer, man...

thanks man ... I appreciate your understanding my point.. my friend told my when i was looking for exhaust sys that the corsa is the best in market and the pest of performance and sound , but i didn't listen to him...! it's ok , we are still learning in this life more and more day by day .
