I never understood why people don't like borla. I LOVE IT. I've had several on several different cars and my dad and my brother both have one on theirs. I think people think it's raspy with no cats but I love the way it sounds. That car sounds real nice man.

Mine sounded awesome with bolt ons, but when I got heads and a cam it got super raspy and tinny. Didn't like it at all. It had to go.

Hooker catback with longtubes and ORY. I did that and would never go another route.

Car sounds really good, but yeah, the Borla needs to be replaced with a different catback.

I have hooker long tubes, so i should get a hooker catback too or something else? Or what if i just stick a bullet muffler in there?

Do you have a clip of this? I can't find any cammed LT1 clips with hooker CB. I like my sound but it chokes with the cutout closed.
