Hooker is quiet, wakes up a bit with an ORY, but still is the quietest imo.

Why would you want to get rid of the Borla!?!? I have it, and I LOVE the tone through Long Tubes and an ORY.

If i can pick up the magnaflow for $100 bucks i can switch them out from time to time. I have the block off plate in place on the Borla and its still insanely loud!.... fun for the track and car shows and stuff, not so much for around the neighborhood where there are lots of old ppl that have the popo on speed dial

Well I ran the adjustable Borla for the first couple months of summer, then switched to a 3" X pipe with Magnaflow 4x9s dumped at the axle, now I'm running a Magnaflow. I just haven't put it on yet b/c I'm dropping the tranny one of these days when I get un-lazy and want the exhaust out of the way. I really wish I would have just kept the Borla though
