Fits Volkswagen Golf R 22-25

Overview

Introducing the APR MK8 Golf R Catback Exhaust System—a masterpiece crafted by enthusiast engineers who were given complete freedom to create an unparalleled exhaust system. The mission was clear: design the ultimate system that enthusiasts would desire. Prioritizing quality, style, sound, and features while keeping it accessible and affordable. Our team poured immense effort and months of development into this project. The result? A system that sets the gold standard for MK8 Golf R catback exhaust systems, and anyone who’s experienced it knows exactly why! The first thing that catches your eye is the system’s stunning appearance. The quality is evident at a glance—constructed from brushed T304 stainless steel with oversized 3” tubing that elegantly splits into quad 2.5” exits. Precision mandrel bending ensures a free-flowing design, while the matte carbon fiber quad tips add a touch of luxury typically reserved for vehicles twice the price! The system is packed with premium features: robust TIG welding and precision-engineered bracketry guarantee a perfect fit and alignment on every vehicle, every time. Our low-profile clamps simplify the installation, saving you time and money. Plus, the interchangeable tips offer customization options should you wish to switch up the look in the future. But it’s the sound of this system that truly excites us. At wide-open throttle, the exhaust unleashes a ferocious roar, yet it remains refined and civilized during daily driving and cruising. This perfect balance is achieved through straight-through tubing, OEM-controlled exhaust valves, dual Helmholtz resonators, and the absence of sound-absorbing materials that could alter the pure exhaust tone. When you floor the throttle, the valves open, channeling exhaust gases through a straight, unrestricted path, maximizing power and preserving the exhilarating soundtrack. However, when you’re cruising around town or embarking on a long highway journey, the valves close, and the Helmholtz resonators work their magic, canceling out unwanted drone frequencies as sound waves collide within the offset tubing. This isn’t just theory—our engineers utilized advanced 3D sound spectrographs to analyze and fine-tune the system’s frequencies, eliminating the tones nobody wants to hear. The result is a tone that’s as pleasant as it is powerful, ensuring an enjoyable driving experience for you and your passengers. Now that’s what we call Performance Without Compromise!

Features:

  • Premium Quad Exhaust Tips: Features quad 5.2x3.9” (131mm x 99mm) matte carbon fiber tips with stainless steel inlays, adding a high-end, customizable touch that exudes luxury.
  • All T304 Stainless Steel Construction: Constructed entirely from durable, brushed T304 stainless steel, ensuring long-lasting quality, resistance to corrosion, and a striking appearance.
  • Innovative Sound Engineering: Dual OEM-controlled valves and dual Helmholtz drone elimination resonators work together to deliver an exhilarating exhaust note at wide-open throttle while maintaining a civilized tone during cruising.
  • Unrestricted Performance: The straight-through 3” (76mm) to quad 2.5” (63.5mm) mandrel-bent tubing ensures maximum exhaust flow. 100% unrestrictive design with valves open significantly outperforms the factory system, which narrows to 50mm.
  • Optimized Power Delivery: Experience improved turbocharger response with peak gains of 5 AWHP and 4 FT-LBS of torque at all four wheels, enhancing acceleration and overall driving performance.
  • Pure Exhaust Sound: The system avoids packing or sound absorption materials, preserving the natural exhaust note. Advanced 3D spectrograph aided tuning to eliminate unwanted drone frequencies for a pleasant driving experience.
  • Exceptional Build Quality: Strong TIG welding throughout and precision bracketry ensure a perfect fit every time, with no sagging or misalignment, for a professional-grade installation at any skill level, every time.
  • Easy Installation: Low-profile butt clamps allow for a simple, no-cut installation, making it a plug-and-play upgrade with the factory system, including a removable reducer for seamless integration.
  • Customizable Tips: The exhaust tips are removable and can be swapped for other designs, giving you the freedom to tailor the system’s appearance to your personal style.

Nice looking. Not very sturdy. Easy to install.
Size: 40x7 2Pcs, Color: White, Size: 40x7 2Pcs, Color: White
Update: The shelf slopes at about a 45° angle when you put anything more than about a pound on the outside edge of it. Perfectly fine up against the wall. Just seems like the braces inside aren't long enough to really give the stability needed. Bracket is nice and tight against the wall. Had to add braces underneath to hold a small plant, a photo and a small container. Wa sloping more and more each week The shelves look great and we're pretty easy to install. They have a single bracket that is very easy to mount to the wall and get nice and level.. The downside is that the bracket isn't long enough to go between studs. This seems like a pretty simple oversight. I mean why wouldn't you make it long enough to go stud to stud? Secondly and maybe more fatally the bars that go inside the shelf to support them coming out from the wall are significantly shorter than the depth of the shelf. Unfortunately this means the shelf is only supported the first few inches coming out from the wall so there is the potential for a slight lean forward.. The anchors they send are trash. Cheap soft plastic that just tears and bends with a screwdriver. I would suggest spending $2 and grabbing your own anchors from Ace or home Depot. The shelves are essentially made of a high grade cardboard kind of wood. They are not going to support much weight or last for years and years however there incredibly affordable and look nice and easy to install. Long as your expectations are right you'll be happy.
