Question for car lovers: exhaust kit for Audi RS5

I am looking to put one on for my rs5

Awe track

http://www.awe-tuning.com/awe-tuning...mance-exhausts

Militek

http://www.millteksport.com/exhaust....9#.UZGc0_q9LCR

You can hear both kits on the videos

So which do you think sounds better?? I would go with the awe but I hear it may drone when driving casually

Personally I love akrapovic... Just hate the prices, I'm saving up to get one on my z06

Tell you what I put a Tubi exhaust by Scuderia on my RS4 and it was awesome--what an amazing sound. I looked at Militek too but in end went with Tubi. Best of luck in your decision...Cheers,

PS- I had the RS6 in 03' when it first came out and then the RS4 in 08'. Great cars and big congrats on the RS5! I am waiting for the RS7--it is my next car!

AWE "Track" sounds great and gets my vote.

Get on the forums and find owners local to you.

Working off of net sound bytes doesn't cut it.

Hear them both in person (and in-car)... And go with
Your heart.

EB.... check out Innotech.... a variable exhaust note system.... very cool.

They do them for Porsche as I'm investigating myself but I'm sure Audi is also covered.

For me..... by far the best sounding exhaust and I've listened to quite a few over the last month.!!!

I had a Miltek on my S6 was happy with it, got a good deal on ebay new and shipped it from the UK to Australia, still cheaper than buying it here, everything here is a rip off. It was healthy/fruity but not excessively loud. There are many great exhausts and probably plenty for an RS5, all will be good comes down to how loud and how much cash you want to spend.

Allot of good exhaust manufacturers mentioned.. Another one I would also recommend (with myself coming from the Audi world "R8 V10") and quite popular among the members of the "R8 Talk" forum is the "Capristo" valve control system.. Gives a deep..beefy roar!!..with no drone..

I think the capristo is awesome but maybe too much to spend on a leased car lol
