Borla Stingers
I've got the Borla Stingers with the Borla X pipe and I really love the sound when you get on it but it seems that during regular driving I get a lot of burbling and popping when I shift gears...Is there anything I can do to get rid of that sound?

Nope. That is part of the deal. I personally like the "burbling". One thing about the Borlas is they don't pop on deceleration hardly at all unlike a lot of the other aftermarket cat backs.

I also have the Stingers (quad round). It does the same sound. I was informed that the X pipe would eliminate the noises. Glad I didn't spend the $ on the X.

i went from SLP Loudmouths, to the Stingers... TRUST me, the stinger "pop" or "burble" is NOTHING compares to the SLPs 
if anything, i wish there was more of it...or a louder sound to the exhaust when not at WOT

Get a Tru X-pipe like Magnaflow or Bassani. Essentially the same. Also West Coast Corvettes has a Magnaflow knock-off for a few bucks cheaper. I still have that great stinger sound but a smoother more refined one!

If you want to get rid of that, go with Magnaflow or Bassani X-pipe. I have Stinger duals, but I like that burbling. After I installed Dynatech LT headers, sound almost gone, but a much more richer exhaust note, and window rattling at WOT. I do belive the key is the Bassani style X-pipe, which is found on most LT headers anyway, and used by magnaflow
