Default TDs just way to loud

Well...i freakin LOVE the way my tsp duals sound. But in my stalled A4 its just a bit to much. Mainly due to the fact my car is a cop magnet now. I got myself some moroso spiral flows, gonna switch them out with the bullets to see the differance. Hopefully it can shut it up enough so I can keep it. Anybody ever go from bullets to the spiral flows?

just need some opinions, thanks

I feel ya, let me know if the spiral flows help. I bet it sucks with a stall. I'm constantly out of the gas near cops around here.

You need to get away from all bullet (small) mufflers to kill your loud tone. The larger the muffler the more sound that is taken away. I doubt the spirals will make any difference except change the way it sounds. It won't quiet it down unless you install a larger muffler. High flow cats are another way to take the tone down some. My true duals with have twin 93506 car sound cats to kill rasp and fuel smell.

try the twisters, they should definitely quiet it down. they don't get real loud til you put in a big cam.

The 18" Twisters are the quietest I've used. Still nasty when you're on the gas, but fairly mellow at cruising speeds.

Straight bullets are just obnoxious... Which is great for some people, but usually gets old fast.

i've heard Lane's setup w/twisters on a stalled a4 w/a trex, it sounds wicked great, just loud as all hell. and he wants it louder LOL.
