APS turbo back system

does any one have any experiance with the APS turbo back system. I was told that it was good for fit, quality, and sound by a place called GRD near my work. but wanted to know if any one had any thing to say about it. I am not looking for a super loud exaust system, more after good performance and fit.
thanks in advance.

I have one - I wouldn't buy another though - too loud for me and the fitment is about 1/2" off on the final flange so the exhaust hanger keeps comming off. I also don't like the way the axle back is 2 1/2" mates to a 3" exhaust flange - this acts like a restrictor instead of tapering the exhaust from 3" to 2 1/2"....why did they even go to 2 1/2"? No flex joint either (after 5000 miles I now have an exhaust leak, it seals when it warms up but cold it leaks.).

What I would llook for in a exhast:

1. Full 3" or more from turbo exhuast to exit.
2. At least one flex point.
3. Less noise (the sound is good just too loud).
4. Fits the stock exhaust hangers.

Good Luck!
