imo, I don't like borla at all. Their mufflers all make the same type of "artificial" sound. Like GT and Cobra mustangs, a borla is discernable because its muffler makes its own sound. Good systems, imo, simply cancel out unwanted noise but let you hear the engine and exhaust noise-- they don't produce another artificial sound.

The GMMG sounds great with LT's.

Birla sounds like *** with LT's in my opinion. Hooker is one of the few mufflers that most people will agree sounds really good with LT's. Hooker is very popular for a reason.

Between those two, I would definitely say Hooker. But if you include everything, GMMG

Well If and When my Corsa muffler falls apart internally and starts making noise and vibrating it will find itself replaced with a Hooker muffler. It's almost too good to be true how well the Aerochamber flows, sounds and especially the price. Save the Borla for the Cobra's and Corvette's.

I just put on the Hooker catback (switched from true duals) and I LOVE it!
