Default Borla Exaust Trade

I am posting this in General because I can not get C5 Parts to come up. Anyone close to Killen Tx so we could have them swaped. I would like to trade the Borla Exaust that is on my car for a stock exaust and $450. This exaust looks like new and has two very large tips. It is to loud for me or I am just to old for this exaust. Pictures available if you want to give you Email. Looking for a like new stock exaust.

Wow! Stingers are too loud??? My 2 tip Stingers - with headers - are way too quiet.

Good luck in your trade.

This exaust is ok around town for me, but on the highway at 75mph it gives me a headace, and my wife will not even go on a short trip in my Vette.( I KNOW LEAVE HER AT HOME )

I have the Borla Stinger Dual Tips on my 2000 convertible and I can hardly hear them once I reach cruising speed. They sure sound good getting there though!

You should do a straight swap for someone who is looking for stingers and has a Z06 Ti exhaust. They sell for about the same used so an even swap would be good for both parties.

I live in Killeen and if I wasn't already SO sold on B&B Bullets (in the next month or so hopefully) I'd trade you in a heartbeat. There is a Corvette Club meeting at Connel Chevrolet tonight at 7, you might find some takers there! Take care

I’ve heard of that with the automatics but not with the 6-speed.

My Borlas are as quiet as stock at 75 or over on 6th gear.

I’m never going to put the stock cans back on. If you want them you can have them.

It’s a very clean cut with a Sawzall and will weld back to the over axel pipes with no problem. The cut is at the same point on each pipe, picture taken when unbolted.

I agree, quiet at cruising, but loud when you get on it.

My brother asked tonight if I got the pipes on tonight, until I hammered it
