Does the APR Catback Exhaust for MK7.5 GTI fit a 2017 GTI?

No. APR built the Catback Exhaust for MK7.5 GTI for the facelifted 2018 to 2021 car. The pre-facelift MK7 GTI from 2015 to 2017 takes a separate APR system, so check the model year before ordering to make sure the correct version arrives.

How loud is the APR MK7.5 GTI exhaust without the front muffler?

This is the more vocal of the two APR MK7.5 GTI systems. The straight-through rear mufflers deepen the note without rasp, and without a front muffler the sound is more present at cruise. Drivers who want it calmer on the highway should choose the front-muffler version.

Can I make the APR GTI exhaust quieter later?

Yes. APR designed the rear mufflers to accept an optional easy-change center unit, which changes the sound without replacing the exhaust. The straight-through design keeps the flow path unrestricted whichever center unit is fitted to the mufflers. APR also builds a front-muffler version for owners who want it calmer still.

Is the APR MK7.5 GTI catback lighter than stock?

Yes. APR states that the system is lighter than the factory exhaust in every configuration, despite the 3 inch main pipe, cast splitter and larger 4 inch tips. Thin-wall T304 stainless steel keeps the weight down while resisting corrosion. That suits a hot hatch driven year round.

What tips come with the APR MK7.5 GTI exhaust?

Two removable 4 inch polished slash-cut single-wall tips come with the system, secured by Torca AccuSeal T304 clamps. They are larger than the factory tips and can be exchanged later for other APR tip styles and finishes without any cutting.

Description

APR Catback Exhaust for MK7.5 Volkswagen GTI

APR’s Catback Exhaust for MK7.5 Volkswagen GTI is the facelift-car version of one of APR’s most popular systems, built for the 2018 to 2021 GTI. Brushed T304 stainless runs from a 3 inch mandrel-bent pipe through a cast splitter into dual 2.5 inch rear pipes, all larger than the factory parts, and finishes in two removable 4 inch polished slash-cut tips. Without a front muffler it is the more vocal of APR’s two MK7.5 GTI systems and is lighter than stock in every configuration. It suits the owner who wants the 2.0 TSI properly heard and is happy to hear it on the highway too.

Design and Performance

The brushed straight-through rear mufflers take an optional easy-change center unit, so the volume can be adjusted after installation without replacing the system, and APR set them up to deepen the note without rasp or drone. Argon back-purged TIG welds, rugged brackets and OEM-style slip clamps give a direct bolt-on fit that is just as easy to remove.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
