Default ditching the borla???

I've been tossing up the idea of getting rid of my borla cat back set up and going with something new.

I just don’t know what I want to go with.. I want to get rid of the tips in the back. True duals would be ok I just don't know what muffler to run, or just keep the Y pipe and run a single muffler off it. (Like a bullet or something)

I don't want something crazy lous either this is my DD I just want good sound that compliments my MS4 and that screams at WOT.

Keep the Borla,just take off the tips. True duals dumped would be LOUD.

As far as Catbacks go I believe Borla is one of the best. I myself don't like the Borla exhaust tips at all, I'd say just get different tips.

Borla tips look good on a T/A if you can get them to sit just right. Tips period, junk the back of a camaro. I personally hate running tips. I only put them on for inspection time. Dump that next exhaust. Whatever it may end up being.

Do you have the adjustable Borla? If so, I'd keep it. That's what I used to have and I miss that exhaust.
