Let's not call that the APR since they neither designed nor manufactured it.. It's the billy boat.

I don't think it is, but neither of us would mind if it was cheaper.

Default almost noone makes their own parts these days. To expensive and no enough expertise.

I doubt that the ABT muffler is designed specifically for a TT. Its probably used in other applications aswell, possibly with slight modifications. Regardless...its one of the more expensive pieces and also one of the ugliest. APR exhaust (whom ever makes it) looks better for less money and I doubt that ABT greatly outperforms the APR. We all know that there isn't THAT much to be had from just an exhaust to begin with.

Default What can you get for 29K with 425hp? GTO?

If only that thing wasn't so plain looking.
