Title: APR RSC TBE & Autotech F/R arbs
Post by: Black9 on May 16, 2014, 07:02:27 am
Got a fairly stock KO3 GTI, thinking of purchasing the above used...

Has anyone used the Autotech arbs, Any reviews?

Also how is the apr exhaust compared miltek and BCS etc? Any issues of tips cracking over time? Also the exhaust was removed from an ED30. Will this be a straight fit for a KO3?

APR RSC TBE is up in the top of exhausts, only problem is their tips corrode/gets scared over time and looks awfull.
I'm running Autotech front and rear, rear got bend in the ears but Autotech exchanged it to "version2 " FOC. Great upgrade IMO

Seems both parts have "issues then" would they have any sort of warrantee as they would be 2nd / 3rd hand!

APR warranty is non existent which is why i haven't got either there SW, IC or RSC anymore, but Autotech has honoured theirs
