Active Autowerke Signature Exhaust w/ custom black tips :)

RobM23 · 08-15-2011, 10:28 AM

Hello guys,

I picked up this AA exhaust last friday from a local forum member for a good price, barely used(around 4,000 miles on it) I was waiting to get a CP-E with black tips but I decided to give AA a try. The only thing that I didnt like about it was that they dont offer an option for black tips so I decided to get it powdercoated gloss black to match my kidneys, badge and trim.

what do you guys think?

UPDATE!

AA installed it for me last Friday, I love it. Thanks to Viral@ActiveAutowerke for all his help, and for answering my 800 questions haha

To me is loud but not insane or annoying, it has some drone but I dont really care about it, I'll take some soundclips this week

I actually want it more aggresive! I cant wait to get some catless downpipes

I need to do this...looks great!

Very nice ;-) ! Which type of painting was used to do that

?

RobM23 · 08-16-2011, 02:27 PM

It was Powder coated.

Process took like two hours. I was planning on getting the piping ceramic coated to give it a stealth look but it was too much money. Anyway you can't see the piping that much.

escobar929 · 08-16-2011, 02:53 PM

looks great, let us know how you like it when you get it installed

RobM23 · 08-16-2011, 03:12 PM

I will

driving down to AA for installation this friday.

lol with this rain everyday mine looks nasty ahahah.

I really like it, I thought it was going to be super loud but to me is ok, it sounds mean!

Theres some drone but I don't really care, to me is not a deal breaker.

I'm getting some cat less downpipes soon...that's gonna be another story, I would like to hear one first to see how loud is it, do u know somebody in broward/dade with this setup? that would help

escobar929 · 08-24-2011, 02:23 PM

that looks really good! cant wait to hear it

RobM23 · 08-24-2011, 02:32 PM

Thanks!

We gotta meet!
