I am not sure about that. My cat-back gets pretty loud over 3500.

Raspy with the Borla cutout open or fully-closed or both?

Yes, it gets pretty loud. True duals SCREAM at WOT. It sounds like a race car/nascar, not a mean street car.

fully open. I can't see why they even designed the borla with adjustable plates. I never changed plates. Having two non-functional tips would just be stupid. I think no matter what system I had, I would use the borla xr1 mufflers in it. They sound awesome. Although I also have 2 firehawks with the TODL catback and that sounds pretty damn good too.
