Default Borla Rear section installed!!!

Just installed my Borla rear section which i purchased for only $320 shipped.... sounds amazing, but its extremely loud! Just happened to be what I was looking for! If you want to save a few dollars and have a nice sounding exhaust, go with the borla rear section. Chris
