Finally got the Borlas mounted. They almost look a little low to me.
What do you think?

They look good to me... only because mine looks lower than yours! :eek: :D One of these days I'll have to unbolt them and straighten them out myself.

Damn, your car looks MEAN from the rear! Is that the Dynomax rear Y, or a custom one? Looks custom to me. :cool:

Thanks for all the compliments. Wasn't really sure if this setup was a keeper. Looks like it'll stay for a while. The sound is very mellow and low. Mostly because the three cats are still in place. We made sure the tips exited just beyond the bodywork to ensure any resonance in the cabin was minimized. The rear Y with x-over is from Corvette Central. It's a good quality pipe in the 2.25 dia. The Borlas are yet another decent ebay deal at $200 for the pair. Just needed a little cleanup and bolted/welded right in. Maybe when wifey gives in, We'll put some test pipes in and check the exhaust note!

BTW Finally customized the license plate frame..... :steering:
