APR makes great quality parts and is a trusted name. I wish I would have gone for their setup but could not justify the price. However with that being said and the economic times their prices have gone down considerably. Before the full 3" turbo back was almost 2500. Now you can find this set up for considerably less. I purchased a 42DD downpipe (over $700 with both the cat and testpipe) and a Borla catback (under $800 shipped). These are average prices seen for exhaust for our cars...well at least the 225. Now you can get a full APR 3" for under 2k, not that much more. See link below.

You always have the option of going custom for a lot less too. Man tho...that SS APR exhaust is just pure sex my brothers.

Yeah, WAY over priced! You can find a used 42DP for around $400 and have a custom cat back built for less than the price of the DP. All in all, less than a grand will get you where you want to be. What did you pay for the APR set up?

Agreed with previous comments. 42DD DP for the 180Q and a Magnaflow Muffler from Summit, then local shop to do the 3 inch tubing was far cheaper than anything those companies could provide.

I love my system... it was expensive, but it sounds great and the quality is top-notch. I just never liked the 42DD product and the rest of the catbacks are 2.5. This is a full 3" system.

its abeautiful piece !.
it sounds very throaty. my only gripe with it is that it has a lot of boom at 3000-3300 rpm.
Mine is catless with resonator.
