just called my local exhaust shop...

[atl_gti]

just got off the phone with my local exhaust shop to get a quote on an exhaust and i was happy with the news! said he'd have to see it first of course but it'd be around $500-600 to get a full TBE with cat... think i might be going and getting this done in the next week or so... this is for a 3" turboback. good deal? i know i had posted not too long ago about not modding my car but i ran into some money and i'm young and dumb, so i figured what the hell? i'll prob be picking up an intake and getting chipped also.:happyanim:

 

[atl_gti]

i should also order a DV or PCV or both too, no? i'd probably end up with the dogbone mount too. all in a week if i have enough. i've got roughly $1500. and apr has that sale

 

[NJA3201]

600 for a full 3'' custom TBE is not bad. Hey if you got the money, go for it man, you only live once. Plus trust me you will fall in love with your car all over again.

Just be sure to specify that nothing is crush bent as youll end up with a nice sounding tbe but one that performs worse then stock!

stayin stock didnt last long lol

stayin stock didnt last long lol

yeah i know. i couldn't resist the peer pressure. i did read about the apr sale and that triggered something! something good i hope!

 

[silversleeper]

o ya just wait it will be like a different car

 

[atl_gti]

stage 1, full exhaust and intake... would i need the DV or PCV, or both? BSH's bulletproof PCV it is probably the direction i would head... and the dogbones are only $40-ish?

 

[nectar]

dogbones are about 140 from bsh (if you get the full unit) inserts are around 40.


and if you've got a full exhaust...why not go stage 2?

 

[atl_gti]

yea i just read some more of the stuff that arin has posted up... i could go stage 2 for the same price right now?

 

[utekineir]

Apr stage 2 and 2+ are free upgrades.

Its up to your shop if they want to charge you a labor fee on the upgrade flashing or not.

 

[atl_gti]

can't i just go straight to stage 2 as my first flash? i'll have the exhaust first...

 

[JDraft]

Why stop at stage 1? If you are getting TBE, go with stage 2! It's the same price.

EDIT: Sat on this thread too long and got beat.

 

[atl_gti]

that's what i'm saying. with the sale, it's the same price..

 

[JesseZ]

yes.
