Default LT's + ORY + Borlamouth = good!

Posting this for those interested in Borla XR-1.
Installed LT headers over the weekend, finally got catback hooked up. It's a LM w/Borla XR-1 in place of the resonator - I've had the "BorlaMouth" for about 80K miles now. Still has the nice, noticeable cruise note, not too loud to talk , but will shine when you let the hammer down. If anything, it sounds much better with the headers. Mods in sig. Will add I drove for 2 days with headers and Y only and it was too much too much. Now it's just perfect.

Yeah. Gotta drive a lot of miles to work. Was going to buy a beater but got laid off. New (2.5 years) job pays too little.

I can't say enough about about them... XR-1's Rule!!!!

The only thing that I would trade my borlamouth for would be a true dual with XR-1's dumped.

I can't tell any difference cruising with Borla mouth after long tubes/no cats than I could with stock headers/cats. Get down on it and it will talk to you, sounds great to me.

Did you guys get the round or oval XR-1? I'm pretty sure the round one right! I just wanted to make sure before I buy mine!

TIA
