hey man all i am running is shorties, partially gutted cats and a single bullet! i love the way it sounds. i was running true duals over the axle with the bullets but my parents told me to take them off so i just took the y pipe route and i still love it. hope this helps any.

Are you running the Borla wide open, partially closed or fully closed? My old set-up was Grotyohann LTs, Grotyohann 3 inch y-pipe, 3 inch slip fit Random Tech cats and an adjustable Borla catback. The Borla was ok but it was really heavy in my opinion and I don't think it sounded that great to be honest. I eventually pulled the muffler and tailpipes off the car for two reasons: 1) weight- that Borla muffler, tailpipes, and tips were EXTREMELY HEAVY and 2) sound- the car actually sounded better with just the cats, y-pipe, intermediate pipe and the over-the-axle pipe.
