    Very impressed with the quality of the downpipe, excellent sound with 0 drone with the factory catback, unbelievable difference in feel from stock tune. Great thanks to Tom and the whole crew at APtuning!

    Can't wait to try E85.. and get the awe quads on soon!

    Around 2 hours or less... Very easily completed.,.. that also entailed the reflash, and plug change.

    I've always been impressed with how much R&D APR puts into their products. It definitely shows!

    hyperunion, when you went to APR to have the downpipe and stage 2 installed. How much did you pay for parts and labor and taxes? Did you notice any limp mode or codes going off? Did you upgrade the plugs because it was recommended for stage 2? Thanks in advance. I'm just trying to figure out what to expect when I do my car..

    I went to aptuning in Lebanon PA.. they are a master stocker of apr hardware and naturally software installer.. I'm sure many place may different rates for install... 0 codes 0 limp mode.. 3 days ago I ran first tank of e85.. ( 60% Ethanol) and the increase in torque is addictive.. Apr recommended for me to use ngk brkr7e iridium plugs.. I kept the standard plug pre gap at .028... Having fun with the car... Can't wait to have the awe quads installed soon!...
