Definitely need sound clips ASAP!!! I'm currently working on which setup I want to go with (had a $1K windfall and an exhaust upgrade is my logical choice..)

Would like to order this at the same time as some other stuff (that time being next week). Can you get us some sound clips soon? I'd like to hear it before I buy it.

Or, can you tell me what it is comparable to? I was sold on the MaxHax Flowmaster 80 set up. Is it deeper or about the same as a Flowmaster? I don't want something that sounds like a fartcan or raspy.

Barring a description, can I get you to call me and hold the receiver next to the exhaust as you rev your motor?
LOL!!! Now that cracked me up good! mcduck. I know, I know, a picture is worth a thousand words, but in this case SOUND is worth even more....Let me see what I can do.

Now this would be my advice to potential buyers:

If you buy it directly from BORLA, your delivery should be quicker! IMO that's well worth the extra cheddar.

Sure lots of shops will eventually carry em'..........But when?
I hate to say it, but you guys know or have heard about shops blowing smoke up your ...! So I just didn't want to go thru that, "Oh yeah, we'll have it in a week and ship it out immeadiately to ya!"
And then days turn into weeks.........


By the way, mine IS a PRODUCTION MODEL.

As far as the *stock muffler diffuser* accomodating the BORLA or vice-versa.....

I wasn't too concerned about that. So I'm not too sure.

I just think... if you are having difficulties winning 20hp by the exhaust, it would be awful to loose 5hp (or some) to drag created by the absence of saaid diffuser.

That Borla is a one friggin bad *** exhaust!!! Can't wait to see the gains!!
ugly or not, i would be willing to bet the injen exhaust makes more whp than the borla. That restrictive muffler on the borla is gonna cut down on power as compared to the injen's "fart pipes". Besides, after listening to the injen it is not "fart pipe" sounding at all.

Looks can be decieving my friend!

Believe me when I say that "BORLA knows their sh**!" Nobody, I mean nobody can say otherwise! Exhaust is there BUSINESS.......PERIOD! Not intakes, not engine management, not forced-induction, etc.

AND...........I will go out on a limb and predict that once I dyno, they will have produced the BEST numbers yet. Just because there's not 2 seperate pipes coming out the back does not mean "diddly"! It's what's inside, how the air is moving around and building up and eventually being released that makes ALL the difference.
BORLA did not go through 10+ systems until they got it right just for kicks.

Borla outperforms Injen. Like TXSTYLE said, BORLA does exhausts.

I'll wait for dyno numbers for both the exhausts first.

If the Borla made 20HP TXstyle were sure as h@ll know it from the butt dyno. Thats not a marginal gain, you'll feel that and there will be NO question.
