Borlamouth guys cmon in please, couple?? Fed Ex dropped off my Borla XR1 today yaaahh so happy 
... untill I opened the box 
How much quieter is this Borla going to make my car? It looks to me like there's a straight shot right through it, not too much " muffling " going on there. I know it will get rid of the rasp but will it help turn down the volume on the exhaust??? Also I don't see how it will fit in there without hitting the driveshaft. Any info or pics would be great

Any info or pics would be great the loudness will still be there but only at wot. its got a good tone to it not sloppy like the lm. it definitely takes away 99.8% of the rasp. all in all a good mod. it won't rub the driveshaft either. i have had mine on for about 3 weeks now.

Because the XR-1 would hit the floorboard and not just a little bit!
After the modifications I'll say that you cant even tell! It looks factory.

The floor board had to be "modified"
