I was going to wait to get the Akrapovic Exhaust system that's been released for the Formentor but then I saw a great deal that I couldn't refuse...

Sounds a lot beefier and it finally sounds like I'm driving a car with balls.

I tried to post a video clip but it's telling me that mp4 isn't supported.

Admirable choice to do this on OPF vehicles and I support the cause. But definitely don't waste your money on Akrapovic for an EA888. Nothing aftermarket can improve the fundamental tone, but any of them will turn the volume up.

Personally I think overrun tuning (or exhaust effects) is the better investment, but the stock exhaust definitely should be louder.

It's an AUD$8k option here, down-under. Definitely not getting it brand new.

I love that it sounds great, now, in comfort mode.

As for tuning vs exhaust...
