Sweet. I have the Vararam. You'll like it. I've been looking at the Borla's for a long time now myself. They do sound awesome. Good luck with the mod fever.

BORLA's BABY!!!

I've had mine for 4 months now, and still giggle like a school girl every time I fire that engine up.

It really completes the car. I have many people stop what they are doing and just stare at my car.

I think it's the classic Corvette FRC shape that gets their attention, and the sound of the Borlas that keeps them staring long after I blow by
