Default Borla X-Pipe for sale

If you didn't see my other post I installed the Borla X-pipe on Sat. The difference was really unexpected. If you want exhaust for sound purposes you may want to consider just doing the X-pipe first as it made the car WAY louder and much more raw and mean sounding. its got the muscle car roar for sure. However, I wanted a smother sound so Im going to be installing the corsa to get the exotic toned noise. So if you looking for loud bada$$ and mean the Borla is the one you want. I paid 520 for it and its got about 20-30 miles on it and Im asking 450 shipped (shipping alone is about 50 bucks). I will be removing it this weekend and shipping Monday.

Are there any sound clips yet comparing the Borla to the Corsa on otherwise stock Z06's?

Best,
Gene

Did you record with the Borla at all? Considering you're going to the Corsa it would be excellent if you could record the difference.

Yeah... I'd also like to hear the recorded difference even though I have Corsa midpipes already on mine.

I'll get some driving footage cuz that's where you hear the difference. It is only a small difference on standing revs. Under light load and cruise is really where you hear it

Agree... same with the Corsas, it sounds meaner especially under load. I'll need to upload some of my driving vids too.

This weekend I installed the corsa. After having both I have to say the Borla sounds better IMHP. Not saying that because I have it for sale but seriously. They both sound similar and I don't think there is any exotic tone that others have described with corsa however the Borla is just louder. If I had heard this prior I would have left the Borla on there but I've done this twice now and I don't feel like doing it again. I did some sound clips on my iphone but they didn't come out good and just sound like crap, nothing like in person so not worth posting. Still going to sell the Borla and if for some reason I still have it in a few weeks I'll put it back but at 385 its a no brainer.
