Then again we have another member on here that hates the borla so its just a personal preference thing. If it wasn't there wouldn't really be a need for more then one catback company
I like the Borla stingers as well but they are only 2.5 inch. I thought about calling Mufflex and asking if they could make their 4 inch catback transition into 2.5 duals after it passes over the axle and stuffing a couple stingers at the rear with some nice tips.

I'm running the same headers and y as you but through a Magnaflow catback, and it's not that loud but it does sound tough. However when I crack the cutout, WOT is damn loud though. Used to give me a headache driving around and people **** their pants when I roar past them.

You gut those cats and you're going to get some raspiness man and once you do that there's no going back.

-You can get rid of that B&B on the forum here. I'm sure someone would buy it, and get you a loudmouth and still have some coin left over probably.

-You could ditch the muffler completely and just weld in a pipe or resonator, you'll still keep those nice tips and get it alot louder.

-You could do like me, get a cutout welded infront of the I-pipe, an electric one to open whenever you want. That's plenty loud.

It's pretty simple.

Been reading some of this thread. I started a similar thread about getting another cutout but unfortunatly the way my y-pipe is set up it runs into 1 pipe so theres no room for a separate cutout on the other side(left side)
I think Im gonna take your advice & save up for a loudmouth maybe.
