As a percentage of the cost of the car though it's probably cheaper than a Borla for a TT :-)

Default Let me just tell you how depressing it was when I went from >>>

a Wrangler to a GTI to a TT, a catback exhaust went from $250 to $600 to $900

Default McLaren F1 exhaust headers were said to cost that of a then-current BMW 7-series

Of course, BMW built the engine only for this car.
