Yeah but the tcr seems to be more similar to the regular clubsport in that it has 290hp and not the 306 of the CSS. Not sure if the engine/exhaust differences carried over there.

I think what they are referring to is that the pipe diameter is smaller in the facelift I believe that the 7's were.

The link you sent over shows the muffler at 100 euro less than the old clubsport (thats a little suspicious), also I looked at shipping the old clubsport at about 120USD. Im happy with my purchase and to support a local company. Also, shopdap has most OE parts at wholesale prices lol. But go on and hate, im happy with what I got lmao :)

and they have some of the best how-to videos for the platform. I too support them when I can. I do try to sprinkle my funds through a few vendors though, but ShopDAP provides amazing service

Edit: Also, did some more digging that link you out up is even more suspicious. Check the weights between the old clubsport part number and that one. A lot red flags...

Who knows how pricing works, but e-acca has always come through for me and countless other people on this site. I don't see anything suspicious at all and think $530 is super steep. But whatever, your money.

Please post a video of before and after when you receive it. I am interested if it changes the sound at all.

The clubsport muffler is around $450-$480. This will be the first TCR muffler in the states - that I know of. This is an OEM part, so yes the prices are steeper when comparing to other aftermarket vendors. Also, not sure why everyone else is so worried about what I paid for the muffler when they have made questionable purchases for their vehicle. But hey, thats none of my business.

Not discounting e-acca as a reputable supplier. But with the TCR being the newest model within the line up and a more limited production run at the moment. I would assume that the TCR muffler will be more expensive than the clubsport muffler is. Please anyone, go ahead and purchase the muffler from e-acca and prove me wrong :)

Where from?

I paid $320 plus $60 shipping when I ordered my CSS muffler from e-acca. Mind you that was early 2017. I got one of the first ones to come across the pond.

Thanks, pjp!



Purchased front mud flaps and Enhanced Rear View Mirror with Homelink from shopdap and pricing was pretty much on par with other vendors.
