> [@blakekunk\_160018](#): > > but I want to hear my car does that make sense No , because you don’t have a performance or sport vehicle and it will sound terrible and use up a large part of this budget you said you had in another thread. ---

Search for this on YouTube or exhaust manufacturers website so you can hear it for yourself. Unlikely anyone here owns a Q5 with the 3.2 engine to even send you in a direction. And cheap Ebay cat-backs sound like cheap junk. ---

I’ll freely admit I know close to nothing about exhaust systems, but when I was a teenager my dad put something called a “glass-pax” muffler on my 60’s Ford Galaxy, and the effect pretty much matches your objective. Not overly loud, a distinct sort of buzzing sound, sort of like if the exhaust pipe was playing a kazoo, that can be heard by the driver, but doesn’t blast everybody in the neighborhood. ---

10-years old exhaust system? start working on it and things will literally start falling apart be prepared that flanges can rust off and hold only on that rust, bolts/nuts reduced 1-2 sizes and having no edges anymore, etc… I would carefully consider existing system condition before deciding on go/no-go, especially in how solid catalytic converters and their flanges look like, as these will likely be quite expensive to replace on Audi ---

Maybe the point is that others don’t want to hear it…
