Default exhaust sound question

I want to get the Borla Stinger exhaust badly. Are their any performance or sound differences between the dual and quad tips? The quads cost about 200 dollars more. If their are no differences I'd rather save the money and put it into gas driving that monster.

As for performance, there is not much gain over stock for either system so to answer your question, no there is no difference between dual tip or quad. As for sound, since the duals and the quads have the same mufflers there is no difference that I can tell of. The only difference is price and appearance.
As for mine, I got the quads and am VERY HAPPY with them! I still remember the first time I started the car with them on!
The only problem is that this is only the beginning, soon you will be craving headers, suspension upgrades and some sort of forced induction!!! Enjoy!

The only engine enhancement I have so far is a K&N intake so I'm at the very begining of a long and expensive project.
