exhaust
I have a question about my exhaust. I can tell the cats and the pipes that the cats are on are stock. My question is where these pipes end and bolt to a big muffler looking thing, both pipes from the cat pipe go into this one thing and it has Borla on it and it looks stainless, it then attaches to another set of pipes that run across the rear end and into the mufflers. I can't tell if the mufflers are stock. They have four 3 inch tips attached to them. They look kinda like they are stainless, but the have black stuff on them and there is nothing stamped on them. They are very, very quite. Is there anyway to tell if they are stock? I figured if they were aftermarket, they would have some kind of sound, but they don't. If they are stock, I am gonna change them. Any info would be great. Thanks!

From the way you describe this set up, it sounds to me that the mufflers are stock. The stainless steel borla thing you described sounds like resonators. Maybe the person that owned the car before you thought the resonators alone were too loud and put the stock mufflers back on. All of this is speculation of course.
