Re: Billy Boat

BillyBoat used to (may still) make the exhausts for APR.. they are top quality.

Re: Billy Boat

Yes they do make the exhausts for APR. I think the price is right also, that's why I am so tempted to get it, I was a click away from making the purchase, but I said no no, lets see what eurodrivers has to say about them

Re: Billy Boat

price is good but youll get owned hard on duty from ECS especially on an exhaust

Re: Billy Boat

how much do you think?

Re: Billy Boat

200US

Add the exhaust to cart, type ur postal code in and go NEXT. Look at the delivery options and with everything paid for upfront it will cost u just shy of 200 for shipping, customs, duty!

As far as the exhaust goes, ive never heard of that brand. Personally id get a Down Pipe before id get a cat back...down the road if you were to get this exhaust ur gonna need to upgrade the down pipe. With a final price of 900US i would definitely look at other options

Re: Billy Boat

yea you could probably get a local APR exhaust from concept1 for less at the end of the day.. but then again maybe not as some shops here pay the fees foward to the customer which is complete BS

Re: Billy Boat

^^I looked at concept1 after posting and they want 1500 for TB 1.8T exhaust and 1100 or something for the cat back. WTF?

They cant be serious?!

Re: Billy Boat

they are probably paying the fees forward to you.. i tried to get them to order me the RS4 intercooler hoses by APR.. 215US anywhere in the US for them.. C1 told me 400 bucks! .. ummmm no!! well shipping, duty,etc on them for us to get them to you.. umm sorry i don't pay your shipping fees guys..



and fwiw

try paying 1200US for an APR S4 catback exhaust
then 1600US for the downpipes!! my bum still hurts

a BB downpipe costs $320US, so in total i guess it'll be 1200, for a catback and downpipe.

Have you looked at any other exhaust systems?

Have you looked for a used system on vortex?

[longsock]

Re: Billy Boat

I have, it was basically either 42dd, apr, or BB.
but now that you mentioned it, i'll go have a look on vortex and see what I can find

[Compton]

Re: Billy Boat

42dd isnt gonna hold up 2 well in the winters(if your car is winter driven). Try and find an exhaust that is Stainless Steel.

Apr makes great exhausts, see what you can find on vortex.

I love my 3" TB GHL.
