I can’t comment because I haven’t heard one but APR’s has the center muffler and two rears. If I were to guess, with your stock car still in place it would be very subtle and not loud at all.

Get it chipped too. Should be fun.

Audi’s are easy to work on, seriously. People are just afraid to work on them.

Believe me, I’m not afraid… as a matter of fact i’ve got to tackle a wheel bearing tomorrow after work… I was just hoping for a few pointers or a DIY to refer to for the spring/strut. I’m rockin’ a b5 a4 BTW

EDIT: I hear you on the rust thing. Thank god this old girl of mine has spent most of her life in VA… super clean. At 148k this is the best DD/winter beater i’ve ever owned.

Compared to a full coilover… i’m looking at a simple koni yellow with a spring… is my headache level going to rise a bit?

Yes, it will. You will have to compress the new springs which is a huge pain compared to a simple bolt in of a nice set of coilovers.

B5 FTW!

Same process plus compressing springs = much harder (yet still very doable).
