I think the exhaust for 2017 is not much different. The tips are reported larger but suitcase is similar. From the video it sounds like 2015, you might have better audio. My videos are also out in open which likely impacts sound collected with 5S cell. The interior sounds like Soudakator. What setting do you have it on?
Below are my clips plus a couple fun ones.

Headphones on?

Stock Exhaust.

Maybe you are right! :)

But my salesman says it sounde more than a CS stock..

If you look on the video you see that the catalyst not is att the same place att the CS. So think therefore it sounds more than the CS

I will check with the soundactor,

:D

Try the soundakator off to see what the muffler is doing. I turned mine to 35% after CSS install. A lot more sound from the rear with new muffler.

Your does sound different than my older OE muffler. Hard to tell 100% from video. I will attach some pictures below showing the older stock muffler and the CSS muffler that someone cut open. I know the 7.5 has larger tips so maybe they made some more adjustments. As you learn more please share. Interesting!

What we need is someone to cut open a 7.5 if end up with it spare after a muffler replacement. Liked your video - unique touch!

Stock Muffler - notice internal chambers - poor flow.

CSS Muffler cut open. Note the flow thru design that a golf ball could pass thru. Also the extra resonator tube.

Outward CSS design similar to Mk6 but I think internals different.

Thank you for the respond on the Video :D.

What a serious answer!,very interesting! :)

Who will cut open the 7.5 muffeler?!, not me:confused: :D:D

Yes something could be more diffent with the exaust. I have noticed that the catalyst is not direct after the turbo as the CS have. That could be the reson why the facelift is louder than the CS anyway..:D

That was a cool shot backing out over the camera. Made it look like a stretch limo.

It dosen't have 2 catalyst due to new emission standards? Seems odd that they placed it under the car that far from the turbo since catalysts need heat to work and they would want it to get hot as soon as possible.
