I installed the same Supermaxx system on my WS6, practically fell right in, very easy install, runs great, sounds great, looks great (with stock catback even); I ordered the headers JetHot coated.
Actually fixed low RPM lugging/chugging/pinging in 3rd (A4).
No codes ever came on (I ran CL+MAF for a few days after the install to check for leaks, then continued running OLSD as previously).

So did you ever find out what they did to not have any issues with the codes or anything. I'd really like to know!

if they give an issue you just have to tune it. some can get a lean issue, some a o2 code. you just have to go to a shop with tuning hardware or get some yourself. i recommend the latter of the two. nice setup by the way. i want to redo my setup and that look sweet.

It hits in that one place only; the mistake I made was pushing all the plumbing up before tightening the clamps; I should have done the opposite and it would not be hitting.
Ground clearance is fantastic.

How do the big-assed 3.5" tips look, I was shying away from their "in your face" appearance; do they have 3.0" tips...?
