I have the Borla w/ test pipes. It sounds like a V8 to me on idle and low rev's to 2.5k rpms. Up top it sounds very throaty, and definately turns heads. I've had my Borla TD exhaust crack on me on both pipes at the H pipe section, so I can't say it's issue-less. But I really miss a flange system, the clamps idea just seems cheap... really cheap.

What was the first indication that something might be wrong with your exhaust? Was it an audible thing or did the car drive differently?

It was definately noticeable. Basically at first I noticed the exhuast lost it's deep idle and I could barely make out a slight off tune. But after it really cracked, the exhaust sounded way off tune and the residue outlined the crack for me which was really apparent and drastic.

only downside to the Injen is the noise....sounds good, but its very loud compared to others out there. I cannot imagine it with test pipes and headers...would be too loud for an old man like me, but maybe not for some

Borla True Dual, barely used on EBAY for $500. Hurry up to bid on it if you want it.
