Finally tried to get some real exhaust clips. Also switched exhaust setups.
I ditched the 2.75" Milltek setup and installed a 3" Magnaflow that is marketed for the 2012-2013 Golf R. I found the Magnaflow setup on Amazon for quite a fair price; it was cheaper than anywhere else on the internet and nearly half the price of any other 3" setup. I was skeptical, but hey, it showed up in 2 days. The Magnaflow setup simply looks like a 3" version of the 2.5" Magnaflow "Sport" exhaust that is offered for the R32. So, it fits right up, for the most part. I had to do some cutting and add in an extra piece of pipe with band clamps for now until I can hopefully have 15psi88 do a tiny bit of welding for me. I didn't take any pictures of the process or anything because it was too hot and I was just ripping through it. The Magnaflow necked down and meant to run with the stock Golf R midpipe, hence the cutting. Anyway, it's finally loud and sounds how I wanted it to sound as it's a typical straight through Magnaflow design. I think the tips look nicer, too.
This first video is the cut up Milltek as seen earlier in the thread.

These two videos are the Magnaflow doing both normal driving and heavy throttle.
