If I remember, the Borla is about 15 pounds lighter then stock. It's mostly because it has a much smaller muffler then the stock as you can see in the picture.

Some cat-back has more torque gains then the Borla like the Stillen(3 more TQ), but then again, The stillen weighs more then stock.

It will sound even better once your test pipes are on. This exhaust really sounds good when you open it up with HF cats/TP's. I still love mine.

Borla with Crawford cats. I liked the exhaust immediately but I loved it once the cats were added. They made all the difference.

Eye it with your ears and that will make up your mind.

Is there any way to get some different tips with the Borla? Sorry if that's a dumb question but I like the exhaust and it would sound good with my Crawford HFC's and Popcharger but I hate the look of their tips...looks like they have a smaller tip inside a bigger one.

I'm sure any exhaust place could weld some tips on.
