Borla exhaust question
I was wondering how bad the resonance/ overall noise was with the Borla exhaust. I know everyone says Corsa exhaust has very little to no resonance, but I was also wondering if the performance of the Borla was better than Corsa and if the better performance warranted me tolerating the noise level.

The performance difference is hardly worth mentioning, shouldnt be any more than a couple HP between the two.
Only difference between catbacks is sound, all of them give roughly 10-12hp.

I have both ..... sound is good on both, but definitely a different sound. I happen to like both sounds .... they are unique.
Virtually no resonance with the Corsas which is a plus if you're installing on an A4. The Borlas definitely have resonance, mostly in the 1600-1700 rpm range, but can be avoided with gear selection in a 6 spd.
