How well do Z06 TI's flow as compared to Borlas? As the title says.. How well does the Z06 TI's catback flow as compared to say a Borla XR-1 system that has the single resonator (2 in, 2 out) in it? Thanks for any opinions. |
Pretty close, the OEM Ti flows very well. |
If you like the "noise" get the Borla's, if not, get the Ti's and spend your money on parts that will help you go faster.. By the way, my 9 second car still has the stock Ti's on it.... |

Just what you see, Cam, SC meth, heads have never been off. Stock exhaust, headers, 3.42 rear, 4 speed auto. Car is a real sleeper... Tuning by East Coast Supercharging how many miles on the engine? |

I took the Borla Stingers off mine and put the TI's on, didn't lose a bit. Ernie |
I recently went back to stock Ti's (about 200 miles ago)... I fell in love with the car all over again. Those borlas sound fantastic; but the minutia you gain in extreme upper end throttle response on borlas is easily negated by the fact that stock Ti's are sleeper. Stock Ti exhaust = awesome; incredibly underrated in my opinion. Plus, even with longtubes + no cats... you can hear *everything* going on in the car. |
my 10 second beast is back on ti's no power loss on dyno 580rwhp. Had Bullets and the noise was too much! Sleeper effect is the best! |

Interesting info here. Any idea of the weight difference between the two? |
I would go TI's! I mean, it is titanium.....I personally like the sound of the TI's... |
anyone ever find out the hp difference between Ti's and stock c5 catback? |
I have seen the Ti's and the Borla stingers dynoed on a stock 03 C5Z. The Borlas made only 3 rwhp more. I have also seen the same test with an 04 C5Z H/C/Procharger. The Borlas made 5.67 rwhp more. I have a friend who works for GM and he told me that a lot of thought and planning went into the Ti's. For what they are, I think they are great. |
The stingers don't sound to bad, although the XR-1 sounds like a farm truck with straight pipes. Horrible. I'm running LG pros without cats, along with the stock TI's and it sounds great. |
i LOVE my B&B PRT's but i think i will be adding Z06 Ti's again. i had a set then pulled them off and sold them to put on my B&B's again. Now i wanna put the Z06's again:D lol |
I have long tubes, hi flow cats, and moded ti's, I think they sound great, a lil louder then stock. But nowhere near as loud as the XR1 |
