Borla Racing makes mufflers that have a 1000000 mile warantee. Should i take them up on this, see if they can pass the cat-less rotor test?

Price? if its not a huge number then hell yea! just beware that they only replace the muffler for you, so if you decide you dont like it... then you might be sol down that road.

Greg, thanks for the warantee info... but whats that mean. Will it still be guaranteed? It looks to me as if i buy a "performance" (not racing) $200 muffler and it burns out i can replace it for free? That sounds pretty darn good to me.

if its a weld on are you going to do it your self? it will cost money to remove and re-install.

Who the heck would pay someone else to install a muffler!!!

Lazy bums? ^

A muffler is strictly bolt on, correct? No welding I hope!

If you get a muffler from racing beat or somewhere like that, then yes it's bolt on. But if it's a borla or any other universal muffler then you gotta bend some pipe and weld the thing on yourself, or pay someone else to do it.

there are several people using the Borla XR-1 mufflers with success on rotories. I almost went this route myself for my turbo first gen but decided on a custom Mindtrain set up instead.

If you do a search for Borla XR-1 you should be able to find info.

accualy most are weld on. :) unless it was made for that car.

There you go. If they determine that there were no defects in the muffler, but just that it was not suited to life behind a rotary, you're SOL.

Hope this helps,

I have a borla xr-1 on my 85 se 12a with a racing beat header and a 24 inch resinator on line header = 2 1/2
piping and resiantor to rearend = 2 1/2 over axle into muffler = 3 inches. Sound is loud enough to draw attention but not so loud that every lawman within 300yds notices. It was definately faster with only the header and 2 1/2 inch straight pipe, but the sound was only barrable at the track. I've had it on there for about six months no problems. Consequently, the muffler was bought used from a friend that had it on his turbo supra for about 2 years! I would recommend them to anyone looking for a good loud sound that is streetable.
