Default who has borla XR-1's on true duals

just like the subject. and can anyone post pics of ground clearance. my car is lowered with pro-kit so clearance is an issue. I just want something that is a little quieter than bullets

The Borla will not quiet ot down much. If you want something that will give you better clearance & quiet it down, try the ELdebrock RPM mufler. It is stainless, and 3.6" thick. Jegs or Summit. I'm very satisfied with it. Great sound.

I disagree with Harold.

I had Dynomax bullets on there before and it sounded pretty raunchy.

The Borla Xr1's quieted it down to like 1/2 of the volume.

Thats what im hoping for john, about half as quiet as the bullets. I have a friend who has hookers/true dual with bullets and im gonna compare mine to his..

Cammin' + bullets and dumps equals a headache.

Borlas sounds really nice, they are not as quiet as full on mufflers but they are a great compromise.

Very nice, but don't burn up that stuff above the driver's side muffler, there is a lot of important stuff running there mah brotha. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Justin, thanks for hosting the pics, i have bein really busy lately, apprciate it.

John, Yes, i still am trying/expermenting right now with the exhaust. I know the fuel lines/filter are right there, any suggestions from anyone are always good.

I still have to redo the turndowns, there straight down, which i hope going out to the side 45* it will calm things down alittle bit, cause its pretty damn loud.

looks like it should work fine on my car. just gotta be careful about the fuel lines.
Blazinredls1, what kind of X-pipe is that, a custom?
