Default Went from a Borla (2.25" IIRC) to an APR 2.5 on my Stg III and noted a bit quicker spool up along

with a bit better top end. I wouldn't say it was earth shattering .. but it was an improvement.

Default ditto...

went from borla (yep, 2.25in) to custom 3inch, and noticed same- better spool, better top end. Again, not earth shattering, but improved. Like i said.. ditto. :-P

Default I did the same but...

i have the same turbo and borla exhaust and switched to the APR exhaust. The gains were very very minimal, if any. I did not dyno test the difference but my butt dyno could not really tell a difference. I do like the sound a lot better though.
