Looks like APR has a new owner, same parent as Dinan and Hurst.

Interesting developments ahead.

I have worked at companies that have been acquired.

First one they came in, changed everything rapidly and then it all failed and fell apart.

The second one they left us alone and only made sure that financial and legal stuff were in order.

So who knows how it will turn out. Dinan is still around so it probably wont be too bad.

Needless to say glad I went Cobb this time around.

+1 Nice. I've always preferred IE's products anyway, but I think a lot of people lean towards the small-shop mentality.

Nice find. All of the other brands have been highly respected for years. I wonder if DP bothered to peruse VW forums before buying. Bet they didn't.

Didn't APR sell out a while back? Is this a new new owner? I heard a lot folks talking about how APR went downhill when the sold the first time.

They almost went bankrupt a few years back...canceled the racing program then sold out. So this would be the new, new owners as you said
