Default Anyone running Kinetix HFC's and Borla TD?

Is anyone running this setup? I have my Borla / popchrgr combo, but want it to be louder. I have a chance to get some Kinetix HFC at a decent price, but using the search i havent found any good/bad reviews of the HFC's. Anyways any input would be appreciated. Thanks

the older cats from kinetix are notorious for cracking.

their newer cats though seem to have addressed the cracking problem, so they should be okay.

I like my kinetix cats ^_^

Very pleased with the quality of materials, fit, performance and price of Kinetix High Flow Catalytic Converters.

I have Kinetix HFC with Borla TD, I also have the popcharger and will be installing the MD ISO 5/16 spacer.

Let me tell you this, the HFC will make your Borla into a beast! You will definately enjoy the new roar.

i have injen intake, R/T HFC and Borla TD. I took this sound clip about 2 months ago, but i only had my brother rev it to 5000rpm max. It sounds much better under load and is quite a bit louder in person. I cant complain, i love the sound of my car. (too bad it cost so much )

I hear what your saying, and i beleive it is the mic. I do not hear any rasp in person. Goes to show you, sound clips aren't worth much compared to being there in person.

I'm a little west of Tampa (pinellas county) probably 3 hours from Gainsville. The closest group to me i think is Orlando, it sucks because i feel like im stranded on an island with a bunch of non-modding old farts driving G35's and Z's.
