Borla quality control
Has anyone had a problem with any Borla products? Anytime I try to do something it all goes south..Im having a problem with a product and don't want to say anything yet till I see the outcome . So far the vendor I purchased it from is great and put me in touch with the manufacture Borla which is also great trying to remedy the problem. The only thing I don't like is the time its taking to get the new product. There are shows coming up and the car can only sit in the driveway. When its all finished Ill post the whole story.

I was shipped two of Box #1 instead of a Box #1 and a Box #2. They were quick to resolve the issue.
Other than that, I love the Cat Back S Type II. No quality issues during install or since (2 years).

I have a Borla Atak axle back on my LS3 and the fitment and quality is great. I had the Atak axle back on my old C5 and the passenger side pipes were bent and it came like this from the factory. Had a buddy that ordered his Ataks brand new from Borla and his were exactly like mine, bent on the passenger side and looked exactly the same. Saw a couple videos on YouTube of C5’s with the Atak system and they appeared to have the same issue so idk what the hell happened there. Like I said tho the Borla Ataks I currently have on my C6 fit great
