Default Cat back Exhaust system

Hey guys!I wanna get rid of my STOCK EXHAUST system from my 2001 Audi A4 1.8T to something with a nice DEEP TONE sound.Such as BORLA CAT BACK EXHAUST or APR TUNED EXHAUST system.I would like to know which one of the TWO EXHAUST SYSTEMS sounds better and more reliable.Please,who ever already installed one of those two exhausts,let me know which one i should go for.Thank u in advance Fellas

I have a Borla cat back and love it. If you go on youtube there are plenty of videos of both these exhausts. When you search try 1.8t apr or borla. I thought that the apr sounded a little more ricey so I went for the Borla. Noticeable at idle but under power it sounds very nice to me. There is a small drone on the highway which I like. In the end it's you opinion but I would definitely check youtube. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Hey Jason,i went on youtube to check out the APR exhaust on a A4(B5) 1.8T,i really didn't see much videos about the APR.And furthermore,the videos of the APR on the A4s(B5) 1.8T that they uploaded on youtube DID NOT sound too good.I was wondering if you do have something better that u can send me at maximusx360@yahoo.com.Thank u in advance bro...

We unfortunately do not have any sound clips of the APR exhausts.

Try listening to some of these.
