I have the Borlas. Great sound but sometimes I wish they were louder.

If all else fails to suite you – take a church key to the cans – 2 holes each – test - then another 2 holes. – Keep that up till there is no muffler left – then just go straight pipes

Well the reason i got the corsa is b/c I heard it was the best for proformance. I feel like I wouldnt get the same proformance from the b&b's b/c I would loose most back pressure.

After WEEKS & WEEKS of reading all the exhaust threads on all the forums .. yesterday I ordered two 14335 Magnaflows @ 79.85 each. Will be using the OEM tips till I'm sure I like the Magnaflows. If I do, I'll be getting dual ovals.

Incidentally, I had narrowed down my second choice to Corsa Sports. But, since SO MANY bragged on the Magnaflows deep sound - and the 160 price - I thought that was a smart risk.

Surprising .. I talked to the Magnaflow Mfgr in California and they are "shocked and amazed" at the sudden, overwhelming jump in sales of the mufflers alone. And, said that they were never intended to be sold that way .. only as a system. But, they aren't complaining, I don't think.

Definitely the most practical way to do it, by far.

I'm still looking to trade my B&B Bullets for the Corsa Sport or Touring. The Bullets have about 20 miles on them. They were just to loud for me and wife liking. Want the growl but not the racecar sound.

Are you serious? Does this work? I guess there isn't much to lose!

What is a church key, anyway? Is this done with a typical drill bit?

Also, if I did this, and was happy with the sound, can the tips of the stock system be replaced to make them look a little better?
