How about just adding a downpipe and cat to your OEM exhaust?  :smiley:

I've got res turbo back and its just right for me, when cruising on the motorway etc nice and quiet but when you press on it gives quite an aggressive bark. A few lads on here have commented on how well it sounds from the outside when following :happy2:

must get someone to do a drive-by for me so I can hear it :smiley:

As alread said the dp and cat wth the standard cat back sounds well, i only really wanted performance and not too much noise but it has made a nice difference, bit raspy and pops...

I have a Milltek res TBE on my K1. I would highly recommend it. As said its very unobtrusive on the motorway inside the cabin, but when on the move it sounds really purposeful. Friends have said it sounds mean as hell fom the outside but you don,t realise that from the drivers seat.

.... *cough* I'm sure you know what I'm likely to say: Something about growing old but never growing up?

Do you feel that 40yo is a major threshold when you suddenly become Captain Sensible? But be forewarned that after 50 you revert back to thinking you are 20!

Resonated for me, sounds great. I've always gone for resonated on my cars, except the RS4, but had to change that after two days, it was just too loud for the wife and kids!!
