WOW! in one word WOW! for us A4 guys. get a converter ASAP. it will be a totally different car. it wakes the car up so much. at any speed i have power on demand. if you have a cat-bak or any exhaust work that **** is gonne be loud. i have loudmouth and it sounds great flyin down the road. car sounds so much more intimidating now. i saw a vette and tried to mess with him and gave him a lil taste of what i got and he ended bakn off
the car is fukin awesome. i really wish i did this the day i got the car. save the money, steal from a local charity, or do whatever you haveta do to get a converter and put that bitch in!!!!

dont mess around doin other mods till u get this one outta the way. and make sure u go big. mine is around 3700 and i love it. the absolute lowest i would go is 3500. anything under that and u wont see a big enough difference to keep u happy.
