I can't tell you that it was either. I think they are both top notch and top $.

Well, the borla is practically a squashed version of a 24" bullet.

From what I remember, it was Corsa. Their mufflers had some weld issues for a bit and some people were blowing the seams on them.

Your best bet is to look for it used, otherwise you'll be buying new. Most places all charge around the same when new.

a 98-02 borla should fit a 94 right? the body style is still the same from 93 on other than the front end right?

Yup, but the intermediate pipe might be a bit different length and the driver's side hanger could be different as well. Minor changes for an exhaust shop to do.
