The only motive behind the questions was right in line with what the thread was about ... APS v. TTiX kit.
You posted up results that were neither from a C5 or the C5 kit, I was just asking questions about what you presented.
We will see what it puts down in time. Hopefully SpeedyD will be able to lean on his like he wants. Lots to see in Norwalk.

I still stand by my comment about one has been proven. To be honest this thread has no relevant value until both vendors can prove themselves in different C5 applications. As of now one has been used on a 346ci C5 to a 427ci C5. APS just finished their C5 kit and we are willing to wait for them to prove themselves in several applications.
The thread should be titled can APS C5 kit equal or surpass the TTiX kit?

Let me rephrase that, those with C6's running larger cubes have yet to post numbers ....*coughing* Brabus *coughing*
I've seen the stock C6 and the numbers...are to say the least VERY impressive.

So far, it looks like both are capable of big power and one has a good rep from repeated users. The other makes great power and is supported online.
Question: Does either kit come with injectors?
Does anyone have photos of the TTI-X install from the top looking down on top of the exhaust flanges? ANY pics would be nice to check out on the intercooler installs too.

Also, some video with more detail of my install of the kit at:

Disregard the track times at the end, I am almost in the 6s for the 1/8 now that I go to the drags on sticky tires instead of street tires and 19" wheels

I have 3" pipes sitting in my garage. I just need to get around to having them welded up right. I will still be using the 2.5" Borla Stingers though, and that will be the new restriction in the exhaust system.

3 inch exhaust goes to APS. I have no clue how much of an advantage that is for the APS system, but most likely it is something in efforts to remove back pressure.
Maybe TTi will address this in the future. The current TTi X guys could upgrade to a 3 inch if they feel the need.
Will it require a 3 inch cat back to completely be useful I do not know. The Borla's are pretty free flowing..
I do know it would be loud..

Address what?
For them to address anything there would need to be a problem.
The TTi Kits do not come with an X Pipe, the cost for these components is less than $350. The intention of the kit is to mate up with the stock exhaust. There is nothing to show that the use of 2.5" exhaust hinders performance. There are a LOT of cars running around with X kits making more than 750 to the wheels with the standard setup Phil and I use.
