APR - CBK0052 - APR Catback Exhaust System - Golf R (MK8)

But it’s the sound of this system that truly excites us. At wide-open throttle, the exhaust unleashes a ferocious roar, yet it remains refined and civilized during daily driving and cruising. This perfect balance is achieved through straight-through tubing, OEM-controlled exhaust valves, dual Helmholtz resonators, and the absence of sound-absorbing materials that could alter the pure exhaust tone. When you floor the throttle, the valves open, channeling exhaust gases through a straight, unrestricted path, maximizing power and preserving the exhilarating soundtrack. However, when you’re cruising around town or embarking on a long highway journey, the valves close, and the Helmholtz resonators work their magic, canceling out unwanted drone frequencies as sound waves collide within the offset tubing. This isn’t just theory—our engineers utilized advanced 3D sound spectrographs to analyze and fine-tune the system’s frequencies, eliminating the tones nobody wants to hear. The result is a tone that’s as pleasant as it is powerful, ensuring an enjoyable driving experience for you and your passengers. Now that’s what we call Performance Without Compromise!
