Default Borla Pics

Just ordered my first exhaust.
Borla Dual Split rear Exit with Tip Stlye 18.
Although I have an idea what this looks like does anyone have some proper pics of their vettes with this same exhaust on?
Ive heard its also ment to give around 15bhp? Can you feel any difference in day to day driving?

EG probably has some pics. Even though he just got rid of his. I'm sure he'll be around soon!
Good luck with 'em.

I purchased Borla exhaust at MidAmerica last Sep from Borla. They told me that the HP increase is somewhere between 12 and 15 percent. One would think that the actual numbers would vary on any other mods you may have. Therefore, a dyno read out would tell you the numbers....

Get catback exhaust for the looks and sound. You're not going to get any HP improvements with a catback system unless you're adding performance headers.

EG's is a tip 37 (like mine below). A tip 18 is a quad ("dual-split").
