Default Borla Stinger Quad tips anyone?

Any Z onwers out there interested in a trade plus cash for my set of Borlas? Since adding headers, the Stingers are a bit too aggressive, and I'd like to try the Ti's. Please PM if interested. I'm in NJ.

They're round, quad tip. Only about 2000 miles on them. (998,000 left on the warranty!) Like new. I've always wiped out the tips when cleaning. Let me know.

Default Borlas Too Loud??

I've always been partial to LOUD exhaust. I love the roar! In May I'm popping for a set of LG Pros, high-flow cats, X-over pipe, a dyno tune, and...I was considering Stingers to replace the Ti catbacks because they are louder.

Is there a resonance at cruise that's annoying or just too loud overall. I'm interested to know because of my planned mod.

Thanks.

-Jay

Jay.....No resonance, just louder overall. Don't get me wrong, it sounds sweet to me, but my wife and neighbors don't get it. You'll love it if you want an aggressive muscle car sound.

Ah yes...the wifey and neighbors. I hear similar complaints with the stock exhaust...from my wife. The neighbors are (at least the husbands) are completely cool about a little vroom vroom from the Z.

Sounds great to me. Thanks for the feedback!
