Have you seen the Bassani True Duals?? They are damn nice, come in either Aluminized or Stainless Steel. They follow the same path as the stock exhaust, but instead of having one big pipe, its got 2 pipes right next to each other. It comes off the headers, goes to an X pipe, and then follows the stock path over the axle and exits out back.

If I have the money I'd have one right now

I paid $570 for my Borla a couple years ago before they came out with the single tip catback and raised the price.

I would go with Borla. Quality is great and the rumble is just right. One thing that I love about Borla is the warranty. 1 million miles is basically lifetime.

If you want a meaner sound, corsa is the way to go. If you want a really unique, clean smooth nice sounding exhaust, then Borla is deff. your answer! I have borla on my car and I love it! I want LTs so much, but Im affraid to mess up its sound I love it so much


And if the tips are a big deal w/ you, as much as I love the uniqueness of the borla octagon (quads) tips, Corsa's look extremely nice! But then again, for $110, you can get the Corsa knock-off tips from FIREHAWK#608 on here.

If you want to hear how the Borla sounds this is a great video of it at WOT. The solo launch at the end is the best chance to hear it!

http://www.injectedvids.com/Videos/WS6andGTO.wmv

Its stock manifolds, SLP y-pipe and then the Borla w/ completely open plates. I think that exhaust sounds extremely nice on that car!

I have a borla catback and just put some long tubes on not too long ago, Im really not sure how I feel about it. Ive tried it with a couple different plates but am not sure. Im thinking about getting a gmmg and selling the borla.

hasn't been a prototype in over a year. i had the first one. after all the testing i did, they put it to market. they are made to fit factory manifolds and cats. but, it can be made to fit headers. click the pink banner and you'll see how i got it to fit the bassani headers and cats. www.vincihighperformance.com has installed the bassani to MAC headers and JBA headers as well.
