Sounds glorious! What exhaust is it?

Not sure but I know it's a new company out of Long Beach.

If you could find out the shop that'd be awesome

The owner of the RS5 got it done at High Flow mufflers in Long Beach. Ask for Pepe and tell them Duke sent you. $895 installed out the door.

Wow that's amazing! Thank you.

How did he secure it?
3
He used this thing: http://www.amazon.com/WinnerGear-Universal-Smartphones-Windshield-Blackberry/dp/B00BZWW3ES
I have the same thing in my car. It's impossible to shake the iPhone out of it...

Holey shit.... i would have been scared to just suction cup it. .... then again if hes driving a rs5... he can buy a newphone
1
I have an old iPhone 4 and iPhone 5 that I've used to do this. If you upgrade to 5s or 6, keep the old one and use it with no fear!
2
fucking awesome!! lol
3
Did he have a mic in the iphone?? How is there no wind noise? Is it really that draft-free behind the bumper like that??
3
Generally yes. I've seen plenty of bumper videos and they tend to be free of wind noise. And it's a great spot to get audio of the exhaust.
2
Is that stock exhaust? Good god.

This makes me miss my RS4.

Why not a gopro...

Please tell me you didn't stop the video in the middle of all its aural deliciousness to ask that. It sounds amazing, that's what matters.

Redditors can read minds. Hahahaha.
3
It's the same idea. If I said he used a GoPro you wouldn't have been able to tell so why does it matter? Do you have a lot of stock in GoPro???
4
I guess I was worried that phone would be destroyed.... That's all.
8
Don't worry, I thought the same thing at first. But then I realized all that matters is that exhaust note. Great googly moogly it sounds GOOD
Edit: plus the sound is probably better on an iPhone anyway

Depending on gopro/iphone, the iphone could be cheaper to replace!
2
because he owns another recording device.
2
on a public road? no bueno.
because recording in neutral in a parking lot would be bad?
guess im glad the video didnt end up in r/wtf with him crashing into someone....

Are you lost? I think you are looking for r/prius...

Eww.
I thought that may have been a joke. Nope. It's a real sub.

This internet thing is full of dark places.

I think I'm going to post this there http://imgur.com/tYrBcUb

I can get 55+ MPG in my A4 if i drive 50mph in 6th

and when your co-worker crashes, and kills a family, what is gonna be the sub you want to send me to?
-2
You must be great fun at parties.
3
Seeing that i party with logical, rational people....i am
-2
You can't compare of an engine revving in neutral to the sound of an engine under load

This.

Thats what a track is for....not the streets.
-2
Except he's not even driving that fast
3
so red lining First and second at least on a public road is not fast? with cars around...
Have you driven an RS5?

Holy hell, the dual clutch downshifts sound glorious on that thing.
Surely you know that they spray a bit of fuel into the exhaust to produce that sound?
Wasting the earth's precious resources for our own pleasure is good stuff
