Love the Borla. Adjustable so if too loud and raspy, just close it up a lil.

what iff i went with the full slp setup would i get a different sound since the resonator would be mounted towards the front vs being mounted after the rearend?

why don't you just replace the resonator with a borla xr-1 or another type of bullet muffler and check ls1sounds.com there is allot of good info there.

Dynomax Bullet > *. IT's cheap, has good clearance, also pretty light. And the best way to get rid of rasp is to do high flow cats.

I'd recommend borla. I had the adjustable one last year and I loved it, and wish I never got rid of it. The guy who bought it from me on here was replacing his corsa, which had a broken baffle in the muffler, with it. And I know i'm alone on this one, but i prefer the looks of the borla tips, i think they look way more BA than corsas. Borla sounded GREAT with the plate closed with my LT and ORY setup btw.

well with the price of the items you are speaking of and the use of dual tip, there is always the new magnaflow with the dual tips, also full stainless system
