Rofl, Borla also tears the crap out of the H-pipe.

You mount the borla, after a few thousand miles (or less) the H pipe clamps start to leak. You go get them welded, eventually, the flexing of the exhaust wears out those welds and they fail.

I bought mine from a member that had it at this point, had it goober welded together, and 2k later its still good, but there are no flex joints, so everytime I get on it I know I'm taking away life.

If you gave me those to chose from... I would pick the Bassani...!

Other than that... Go find a used Amuse R1-Titan... or if you have the cash.. Get a new one! =)

Everyone has opinions on that stuff though.

Exactly.

Most of the guys on here love that look. I personally never got into the HKS, Injen, or Greddy dual look. I don't like the look of the Borla either, the tips need to be reduced....

Then again, I've done like nothing on my car for looks.

Yea my last Z was all motor mods so I changed it up with this one.

That is why I dont like the bassani the muffler is off set to one side of the car when you look at it from the back. Looks really crappy

Hum, I had heard the Bassani and the Boral both use an H pipe?
Maybe ther is more than one model?

I have a 2008 touring model.
