GTHaus and APEXi have their systems complete.
I’ve had my APEXi full catback since April.

Leaning toward that system since GTHaus is grossly overpriced. Tom's might be too loud. Any clips of your setup?

That sucks It would be cool to hear if you want to put it on YouTube or something. The tips look really nice on the back of a blue car too.

It’s all good. The stock look was too plain for me. Tips are too small. Just my preference.

I really like the way the Apexi sounds! just not a fan of the way it looks at the end.

Let us know we can get you taken care of.

Apexi resonated exhausts should be in stock sometime this/next week.
Apexi non resonated will have extras in September but need to preorder before they sell out.

GTHAUS we should have in stock now as well.

yes, that’s the purpose of resonators.

RR racing has the axle back valvetronic listed now. Really tempted. The price is reasonable too. I want it to be a bit louder than stock but also toggle to quiet on cold start cuz I'm such a considerate neighbor.

Anyone have in person experience with only a axle back on a 2UR-GSE?
