Borla True Dual Cat-Back
Anyone have this exhaust? If so what do you think, and can we have a sound clip of it. I like the way Magna Flows exhaust sounds, but it's a bit pricey for me. Plus, Borla makes a great product. Thanks in advance
I just had it installed yesterday. It's really great IMO.
I only have 1 (in-car) clip at home although it's fairly quiet and my intake sounds louder.
I will be taking some driveby clips on Sunday. I'll try to post them.

The last time I checked, Borla has the highest HP gains out of all the exhaust out there. I just assumed this is just well known so I guess no one cared to say it. borla claims 23HP and backed it up with a dyno. But that's from Borla so not too many people trust it.
So here is a list from Sport Z Magazine:
PEAK HP:
1. Borla 8.2
2. Stillen 8.1
3. Injen 7.6
4. Nismo 6.3
5. 5Zigen -3.4
PEAK Torque:
1. Stillen 7.3
2. Injen 5.1
3. Nismo 4.5
4. Borla 2.7
5. 5Zigen 0.2

Thanks for the info guys...I think Borla is the way to go. Am glad to hear it's not all loud and exaggerated too. That clip from streetfire sounds great! Now I gotta shop around and find the best deal.
Is there any difference between the Borla exhaust on the Z and the Borla exhaust on a G coupe?? i kno the Coupe exhaust is probably longer, but what i mean is if there is any difference that can affect it performance wise? Such as the Z exhaust might have a slightly larger pipe size?? I heard the Z Borla exhaust comes in 12 different pieces while the G coupe is only 4 different pieces. But that still doesn't answer the question if there is anything different performance wise.
Well, at least for the Z there are 2 Borla exhausts: (1) the true-dual exhaust which has 9 pieces and (2) the basic y-pipe exhaust which has like 3 pieces.
Here they are: http://www.racepages.com/auto/exhaus...z_exhaust.html
As long as you compare true-dual to true-dual then performance should be nearly identical between the Z and G. But if you are talking about a Borla exhaust for a G35 that only has 3-4 pieces then it's not the true-dual.

Correct. One muffler, with 2 inputs and 2 outputs.

Not what I said. An "H" or a "Y" up near the manifold, actually helps performance. I have put an "H" Pipe in my Invidia G200 Dual. What I'm saying is, that any exhaust with a any type of muffler that mixes both exhaust paths is not really a True Dual.
I don't think you plain is a wise one. You can either replace the test pipes with Hi-Flow Cats, put on Test Pipes with Resonators, or increase the length of your Resonators on the Stillen Dual.
My Invidia System has absolutely not rasp.
