so ive narrowed down my exhaust choices to either borla catback or magnaflow. Ive got a pypes offroad x pipe now and im looking for a catback. I was leaning towards the borla but then I heard that the magnaflows are a little more quiet. Ive read many other threads and watched youtube videos but just cant decide. Just wondering which is more quiet in person as I don't want anything too loud or raspy.

Get either one with the oval mufflers and you will be very happy. I've actually had both but with high flow catted x and both sounded awesome. I think the round bullet mufflers with offroad usually sound like ass.

Not sure what the oval Mags are called but the Borla model is Pro XS. The steeda catback also uses rebadged Pro XS

I have a bbk off road xpipe and borla stingers. I'm very happy with the set up i switched from flowmaster 40s and sound difference was night and day. They dont drone on the interstate and are just a deep rumble until you punch it "loud" but not raspy sounding.

I have the borla stingers cat back and i love it! I just recently added a SLP catted X pipe and man what a difference, made it much louder and sound like a real muatang. With just the stingers the loudness was great for a daily driver no drone or annoying humming.

If you do end up going with the borka stingers go to AMAZON.com I got mine from there for $417 shipped! Because it was an open box return. They usually have them for $519 but its still cheaper then everywhere else

What sounds like **** to someone sounds great to someone else. Same for loudness.

Like I already said, the Steeda catback is a rebadged Borla Pro XS.

I am not aware of Borla selling one under their name. I got lucky and found someone selling just the Steeda mufflers cheap because they swapped out just the mufflers for louder ones.

Magnaflow does sell the complete oval catback. AM or anyone else has it.
