So they'd both be louder without them? Nothing to do with seating the part properly? Because in http://www.goapr.com/includes/img/products/turbo_muffler_delete_mqb_015.jpg it looks like they both have an indent of some degree attached to the outer ring :S
SixSpeeder the camera was placed outside you car?
How is the sound internally, with the windows closed and AC on? Were you able to notice any difference on performance?
Yes, it was shot with the GoPro that came with my car on a suction cup mount. With the APR intake, the interior sound level really isn't drastically changed. The pitch of the turbo has changed a little bit, and I can hear more mechanical coarseness from the turbo, but the sound level of spool has only increased a little bit, and is not very noticeable with the windows up unless I really get into high boost. I would be curious to hear what the guys running an unenclosed intake (like the Injen) have to say about it, since they can hear what is going on with the turbo a lot better than I can.
It feels like it has helped the performance of my car slightly, spool comes on very quickly and easily now. I'm currently running the stock catback on my car, I'll report back when I throw my Flowmaster back on to see if I can confirm some of the claims of increased 'pops and growls' like some people have said they experienced.

I Just installed the apr turbo muffler delete it took me a little over 2 hours to install. I'm no mechanic. One of the hose clamps was facing toward the engine and one facing strait back, not strait up like shown in the install manual. Also they don't say anything about how to get the factory part out of the car once it's unbolted. I had to drop mine down underneath the car to get it out. Putting the APR part in is way easier than getting the factory part out.How hard was the install process? Interested in getting one is why I asked
