Default Cheaper isn't exactly as it appears. Add in the PES high flow cat (which is included in the APR kit)

and you are talking another ~400-450. Add in the ~50 worth of spark plugs provided by APR and the two kits are still pretty close in price.

Default no... I wouldn't expect the stock clutch to last more than 30k miles on either kit. Who here has

had a kit with the stock clutch for longer than that?

Default Sounds like a design that was used to make a customer use only what they supply.

So people like being able put on a kit that lets them run a stock cat just in case they need to take it to the dealer or have a smog problem.
