From looking at the stuff that awesome have on display i can tell you that the APR exhaust parts are far superior than the Milltek gear,guess the price difference backs up that build quality.

Think one of the main reason's i like Miltek is the R32 style system sounds real sweet.

Have a word with Nick to see when their exhausts are going to be ready. He said the company which is pre-fabricating all the pipe work is Welsh Coast Customs which is by me. and their welder/fabricator is meant to be very good. plus am sure Nicks prices will be very competitive  :wink:
