Nice tips

Buttometer says bit more get up....and the sound is good. I know it flows better just by looking at the stock system. The resonators are next to go, I started the car with only the cat pipe in. I was very surprised at how quiet it was.

Here is the rest

The car will get louder with time as it breaks in. I have about 1000 miles on mine. The sound is the same except for more exhaust collapse when decelerating and a thicker tone when cruising at 2 grand. Where did you buy your borla and how much did you pay for it? Enjoy! :friday:

Stan - I am considering a harrop dif cover/mount. Do you thing the Borla cat back would interfere?

I will agree, the exhaust will get louder after a few months of driving. This has been the case with every other exhaust i've owned on every other car i've put an aftermarket exhaust on.

Stan,
How much space is there between the stock differential cover and the one pipe. Please refer to your poc #24. I want to do the Borla. Yours looks great. I also want to go with the Harrop differential cover/mount system and I am concerned about interference.

That sounds awsome, especially the startup and reving.

Looks like a clean system, thats why I bought the Borla for my camaro.

And with my car, I'll say it took some time till it started to sound really good! it's almost been 2 years since I've installed mine.

Did you install that yourself in the driveway?
