but, there wouldn't be any gains acheived by doing that hp wise. i got quieter interior, better sounding (my opinion), and 15 rwhp more.

Yes, the tips changed about 3-4 years ago.

I love Borla, not too much with LT's and ORY. But if my T/A gets that I will put a Borla XR-1 in the I pipe. And I do have the QTEC in my Borla on my T/A and love it.


Peace,
Craig.

trust me there is a link in the extrenal engine section with a clip of the borla xr-1's in a true dual system and it sounds amazing...also if someone could post a clip of the bassani duals that would be awesome as I havent ehard them yet. Either system will sound badass and will net you more power than a catback.
