Default Is this a Borla catback?

The catback is still on the Vette. I can not tell what it is. I know it needs a good cleaning. I think it is in this link.


http://borla.com/applications/lookup..._System/14961/

If you know catbacks can you take a look and let me know what you think. Pics are of the unknown. it is not loud at all and I am thinking of selling it or tradeing it.

Anyone want to trade??$? (not for stock)


Thanks,

Paul G.

They look strikingly similar to the old set of Borlas that I had on my Vette before Carlisle 07. I asked one of the guys what exhaust version it was because I COULD NOT find anything about them on the internet. He said that they were the first version of the Stingers for the C5.

Mine were fully polished and in new condition. I think I got around $675 for them. They sounded good but I prefer the deeper sound of my Magnaflow Performance exhaust.

YeloFevr: Where was that pic taken. I recall someone saying that the borla people were streightening out pipes for free at that event.....maybe they'll come to Houson one of these days.

That was at Carlisle this year and they actually were installing new Borla systems for free. I had them take off my old Borlas and install Stingers.
