Borla Stingers, Magnaflow X-Pipe Install with Pics !
This morning I had my Borlas from the WCC GP installed with a Magnaflow X-pipe and CAGS. My local performance muffler shop was awesome. Even let me help. $ 178 total for the Borla Install, X-Pipe and install. Great Deal ! Since I helped I got a discount on the X-pipe. Reg Price 100 bucks..discount 50 bucks ! Anyone looking for an X-pipe I suggest you check your local performance/offroad shops to avoid the Corvette Tax :smash:
While on the lift I plugged in the CAGS defeat. Easy as replacing a light bulb !
The sound is WICKED AWESOME :hurray: I love it. Thanks to all of you who suggested the Borla Stingers. All the guys at the shop said the car sounds Badazz :D It turns heads let me tell ya :thumbs:
Here are the stock Ti's:
Here are the Borlas, car is wet, it rained on the way home :cry
Here are the stock Ti's a start of removal:
Here the Borla pipes going in:
More to follow in this thread soon..... :yesnod:

2 3/4" same as the pipe. :seeya
It was pouring down rain when I finished the install so I won't get to seriously road test it until tomorrow...I hope the weather breaks :smash:

would a 3inch X fit? The 2 3/4 looks pretty tight already?

I am not sure a 3 inch would fit. You are correct...the 2 3/4 was a tight fit, Took a little wiggling to get it in there, but not too much.
I did not dyno before these exhaust mods. I will dyno in March before and after I add Halltech TRAP and LS tune. I will post then. :yesnod:
