AMS or Buschur?

I am going to be getting tuned pretty soon after I get a few more parts for the car. I am almost excactly the same distance form both of these shops can't decide which one to go too. I will also be purchasing one of the 2 companies turbo back exhausts as well. Do you guys have any suggestions? I ll getting a tune after the basic evo mods, boost controller,intake, and exhaust

thanks

They are both so good that it is hard to decide. The best thing is that you can't go wrong with either.

If you are getting reflashed and come when we are doing a tuning weekend, like the one we have coming up right before the shootout Oct 13th, we will dyno tune you for $300.

We have our turbo back exhausts with your choice of the Magnaflow or Bullet muffler and with or without cat for $825 shipped.

Thanks for the interest.

It does depend on personal preference. While you can't go wrong with either, it depends on your budget, sound, and visual preference.
Buschur is typically cheaper. (this isn't a bad thing) Their standard exhaust is lighter, by about 20lbs from what i've read. They use a slip fit design which some like, some don't. They also offer a v-band which is comparably priced to AMS.

I haven't heard AMS's exhaust(I am sure it sounds good) I know Buschur's sounds great. Without a cat it is very throaty, especially if you go with the bullet muffler design.

Visual, again both look great. If you like the more traditional bigger muffler look, then AMS gains points. (unless you select the magnaflow from Buschur)
However the bullet from Buschur is unique and great looking as well.

Good luck. As you can see what I would go with.
