Installed Borla straight pipe exhaust
I've been looking for exhaust for quite some time and I Couldn't pass up the deal I found on Craigslist this weekend. Brand new in the box Borla straight pipe kit. He was asking $390(retail 
) I offered him $250, he laughed and by the end of the day it was mine for $250. Put it on the same day and WOW!! sounds great! especially for the money!
While one day I hope to get a nice expensive Corsa kit, this will do nicely for now

That does sound great! 😒
A post about sound without sound is like a post about appearance without a picture.

Nice deal for sure. Get a vid up, I'd like to hear what they sound like. That system always intrigued me.

Great bang for the buck , I really wanted these before I found my magnaflows.
They got the volume but they don't got the right tune, sounds kind of tractorish, when you open the throttle it sounds so raspy.
With that said if I found a local set for cheap id probably buy them too

Oh those sound good! I can only imagine how loud they'd be behind a full length header and a cam bumping away.

I got them on my 98
bought my vette 2 years ago. It came with the Bola straight pipes, it sounds awesome! When I am drive sometimes I like to just listen to the sound while I drive, better than the radio!
