Borlas were popular before most of you had driver's licenses

OLD stuff now. GMMG rules

I love GMMG because I have only seen 1 other person in houston with it. Almost every other modded camaro has borla on it

Dude...Buy Nineball's GMMG system! It sounds soooooooo much better than the Borla throughout the entire rpm range (the tone only gets better with headers and engine work). Much deeper and more refined tone. Seriously though, Borlas look cool with those intercooled tips, but they don't sound very good with headers and sound downright horrible without cats (the rasp/popping is insane). The worse sounding 4th gens I've ever heard were highly modified set-ups running out Borlas.

Not to mention Nineball's price is damn good for an unused polished up system with optional tips...

Nineballs price doesn't look good when you compare it to what you can buy a great sounding borla system for.

Every other fast car back in the day had a Borla on it, esp with the LT1s, if there was a fast LT1 on the street it was almost mandatory that it had a Borla on it.

His price (on a still new unused system) is also the same as what you can buy just about any brand-new Borla system for as well...

Not to mention not everyone thinks the Borla is a great sounding exhaust either...

To each their own...

ANYONE HAVE BORLA FOR SALE? Yeah GMMG sounds better, but I don't want to spend more than 400 bucks and everything else sucks or looks bad on a Z28.

I'm open to trades as well.
