Hi guys , just got apr downpipe. What is the best exhaust to pair with it? I like aggressive sounds , just long as it’s not ridiculous drone.

Or have a shop weld in a universal muffler if you're on a tighter budget. Black Widow, flowmaster, etc. Also look up GTI Jakes exhaust threads. Lots-o-info there

None. Open catback

This thread has been made many times before. I suggest checking out the exhaust portion of the forum rather than the general discussion section. Lots of good info over there

Go tribe.

Not the cheapest way out, but one of the best options IMO = AWE Touring Exhaust. I have it paired with the APR dp, and it sounds amazing with no drone. Highly recommended.

Edit, just reread and said you like aggressive. They also have a Track version which will be louder for sure.

Count me in as another vote for AWE, not the cheapest but it does sound incredible.

Go Borla and add a resonator if so desired.

Does the Awe Touring connect directly to the Apr downpipe? Or is there some other piece I would need to purchase?

Honestly the APR downpipes with stock catback is the perfect exhaust note for me. It's quiet enough that it doesn't annoy my neighbors. Doesn't have any drone. Sounds aggressive when I'm on it (sounds awesome going through tunnels or parking garages). Maybe it's because my taste in exhaust notes have changed, as I used to have a magna flow exhaust on my mk6 paired with the Billy Boat downpipe.

Another vote for AWE.

Most people with aftermarket DP & Track exhaust experience drone and you might want to look into that.

I thought the same thing. Until I put on the AWE. Still no drone, just much deeper sound than the stock catback.
