Default Soundclip wanted: Borla with High Flow cats

I will be getting HF cats soon and would like to hear a soundclip of the Borla with the addition of high flow cats if anyone has one.

If you like the sound of the Borla but feel like there is "something" missing, then get some Crawford cats. It's not a night and day difference but it really enhances the tone of the exhaust and makes it growl. Under load it sounds much better. I would say in terms of sound, if the Borla with the stock cats is a 7 then with the Crawfords its a 9. As for the power increase you will notice a quicker throttle response and a noticable improvement in how the car pulls from 3500 rpm to redline. It just feels and sounds better.

-the car starting up

-me revving the motor from inside the car with the door open....as you can see the lights suddenly cut out because i used the remote start and didnt put the key in before revving her up....hehe. and i didnt feel like being out there longer so i ran back inside! hope the vid is decent.

i wish i would have made a soundclip when my resonators were removed from my Borla TD. when i added my Kinetix resonated testpipes i heard no difference at all in sound but i have no rasp at all either! knowing i had 2 sets of resonators between the Borla & Kinetix i decided i wanted to remove the set from the borla. WOW, what a difference it made. same deep tone & borla sound just alot louder at all rpms including idle. after a while i decided i missed the cleaner lower db Borla sound & reinstalled the resonators....hehe, now im thinking of removing them once again, may be an every 6 months event just to change things up, lol!
moral of the story? if you feel that "missing link" feeling from your Borla exhaust, remove the resonators, it gives a whole new meanging to the Borla sound!!(you can always reinstall them)

Oh, and for the record, the soundclips do NO justice in conveying the actual sound of this combo. My car sounds like it means business!
