Default Borla Exhaust

Have any of you tried the Borla system with full mufflers. The one I just got looks very similar to the Corsa system but it has huge round tips coming out of the back. I bought the system from David at MTI and he told me that it was basically Borla's version of the Corsa touring. Any input?

Default borla

in all my experience w/borla's,on both my 95 and 01,they are a good system w/deep tone and pretty good looks and the noise level is minimal w/the basic system.it sounds ok when you get on it too,but if you're looking for more agressive rumble's then you'll need to go to the stinger dual tip,or the borla straight pipes.i like hot rod kind of loud,and i had the stingers which weren't quit there,but the straight pipes are right there and the cabin noise is not as bad as one would think.either way,borla makes a pretty durable product.but if you're looking for that muscle car rumble,only the straight pipes will give it to you!!!imho,as they say on this forum.good luck.jesse
