Worth it to get rid of borla for gmmg?

I have a borla currently and i have an entire Centermount sittin at my house. I think it would be easier to hook the gmmg up to the cme rather than the borla. The whole plate thing with the tip being hooked up a little different on the pass side could be tricky. If this gmmg kit is as sweet as everyone says I have no problem swapping out. Plus i could prolly get like 300 out of my borla. Thanks a lot guys.

Do it, you won't be dissapointed. GMMG is a little lighter too.

Ive had both. I wouldn't spend the extra money on the GMMG, especially since you already have the Borla.

Ive never heard GMMG in person with a cam in the car, but everywhere you look here in houston, everybody has borla. Soon I hope to have it on my car too.

i just wanna kinda try something different, my car sounds damn good and is loud as hell, but everyone really talks this gmmg up. How hard you think it would be to hook cme up to borla? Because the right tip bolts clear up to the over the axel pipe, id have to have a header flange welded up.

Not worth the hype if you ask me, especially if your sticking with the stock manifolds and/or with cats. Borla is pretty raspy with LTs and cats, but still sounded mean as hell. The only reason GMMG is on my car now is because the previous owner had it on there. Soon I will know how I like it with LTs and OR Y pipe.

No cat-back is worth that much money to me, especially when you already have one of the expensive ones.

I dont mind keeping my exhaust, i have just never heard of anyone hooking the cme up to borla. Someone said that switching the different plates out could mess with somethin once i put my d1sc on.
