Exhaust systems do not change any emissions on a vehicle since it is after the catalytic converter.

do you have test pipes on it ? I don't think so, but I'm asking in case...

I'm looking to buy the skunk2, but I'm still hesitating between this one and the borla cat back... and I have Helix test pipes...

any opinions ?

no test pipes on mine, I live in Kalifornia.

the borla looks cheap, look at the connectors they use, are those exhaust clamps?



Get the Skunk2 it has real flanges to connect the pipes, and includes gaskets.

How about some in car vid at 30mph and 70mph, and WOT?

Every exhaust video should include:
Neutral free rev to redline
Neutral throttle blips
Outside 30mph drive by
Outside WOT blast
Inside 30mph
Inside 70mph
Inside WOT blast

Sounds like crap. Sorry but, I prefer to NOT make the car sound worse than stock.

BTW, Borla does NOT use hose clamps. LOL Take some time and read up before making noob comments.

good to know Borla dumped the clamps and went with flanges. They need to update their pictures.
