Reviews are definitely something you may want to search for before purchasing

Edit: AA makes great products which I wouldn't think twice before running. I'm just stating that it'd be a bit smarter in the future to do research before purchasing.

I have both and couldn't be happier, well i have there race version of intercooler have not had any issues yet other then a few fins bent. besides that anything active is usually always going to be quality they have a proven track record with BMW's. I went with AA down pipes because they have mounting brackets for the downpipes, are the same as all other 3" Dp but only ones to offer mounts.

Never said VRSF were bad. Have only heard good things, only few have had issues(like with all products) an those who had issues were taken care of an resolved. DP's, Intercooler, cat- back exhaust coming soon... don't see any downside so far. Helping out the community without the insane BMW tax and producing some quality parts with even better customer service.

...nope nothing yet

He just said Xi is in development i believe in another thread

+1 -- Always do your homework & research a product before making a purchase.


Any & ALL of the DPs perform relatively the same, the biggest difference will be quality of materials & fitment.

I never said you mentioned anything.

If I was leasing a car sure buy vrsf, and again in my opinion if I am keeping a car by AA OR AR.

I'll show you 100 excellent reviews for every dissatisfied review

Not quite sure how you perceived my first response but I didn't in any way claim AA products were bad, I just mentioned that it'd be wise to read up on a product before you purchase. Purchasing a product before researching what you're buying, then asking for confirmation isn't exactly what I'd do when purchasing a product. AA makes quality products and I'd happily recommend them if someone was looking for an alternative to our product.

We offer a lifetime guarantee against ANY possible defect which is more than any other vendor on this forum offers. Have you given us a shot? If you haven't I'd love it if you gave us the opportunity to change your mind

Contrary to popular belief, "You get what you pay for" only goes so far in this market these days. Just because a product is less expensive, doesn't mean it's inferior.

We're putting effort, time and money into offering a product for the XI which most vendors on the forums have already written off as a non-profitable market. I apologize if we haven't been able to meet your expectations of delivery time but at least we're trying.

Tiago, you are putting in time, effort, and money for the sole purpose of making money by finding a spot in a market that few are currently in. Otherwise give them away as gifts.

Hyundi offers a ten year warranty and limited lifetime warranties.
But I drive a BMW currently, hmmmm.
Guess I should switch.
Anyway your response was very professional, where as my initial reaction might have been too harsh. It is always nice to have options none the less, so good stuff all in all.

Wow bunch of trolls in this thread lmao....

Tiago is in this for money....ya, so what? That's business buddy. At least he's honest and has competitive pricing. If you wanna pay a BMW tax all day for everything, so be it.

As for the whole BMW comparison to Hyundai based on his warranty comment, wow complete garbage lol.
You sound like another brainwashed fanboy. It would be nice if BMW wasn't so arrogant considering their many very expensive defects with this platform. Nonetheless there are always the upsides and that's why we have the car. Otherwise you would own a hand made Veyron. I think not.

Anyways, I didn't want to come off as an a**hole, but I never understand when people complain about a product because of a few bad reviews here or there and low prices of all things.
