Anyone running Borlas'?

oldernewbie · July 23rd, 2006, 03:12 PM

Not to say I'm displeased with my stock exhaust, but was wondering if anybody has upgraded to Borla catbacks? From what I see, there pricey, but are they worth the bux? I plan on keeping my 06 GT for awhile and if I upgrade my exhaust is it worth it? Thanks!

I helped a friend who is another board member slap some Borla axle backs on his 05 gt and they sound great IMO, then he added long tubes w/hi-flow catted h-pipe and it sounded like sex, until he upgraded to a 2.4 kenne bell blower and it is a wet dream. I say go with them, they are quality peices, no fitment issues just clean them down good after you install them before you heat them up.

LOL Quoted for truth!

It was the first mod on my Mach several years ago. The fit and finish is great. I had it with my stock h pipe and it sounded great. Installed a Bassani catted x and it sounded awesome. Installed longtubes and o/r x recently and it freakin' screams. Small animals hide and children run for their mothers when I drive past.

I think its worth it, I put them on my 03 GT and they sound great, I think Im gonna put them on my 01 V6 too, but i might go with flowmaster for that

I put borla on my 03 GT and i love it, might put one on the 01 6 banger, but i heard flowmasters and magnaflows sound the best on 6 bangers

I have the Stingers on mine.

Reg here, and from what I've read they have a louder and a softer version for the s197's. Since I got mine so early I'm pretty sure I have the softer ones, but they don't sound soft imo.

yeah Borlas sound damn good. very pricey but great sound and a awesome quality product.

oldernewbie · July 25th, 2006, 06:43 PM

I appreciate all the positive input....a little bit of OT coming up and I might throw a couple of those bad boys on.

Thanks again!
