Borla Turbo muffler

Well, I remember talking to one guy at a local RX meet, got onto the topic of exhausts, and he said that he was running a full 2 1/4 exhaust with a Borla muffler, and it sounded pretty damn good.

Today I decide to check it out, so I go to Mopac (only store around here that carries performance parts in general), and talk to one of the guys behind the counter, and he says he wouldn't recommend anything by them for a rotary, said that rotaries run too hot and will burn it out in a matter of days.

Anyone know//have any experience with Borla behind a 12A?

If I finally get around to getting money in my Pay-Pal I'll probably e-bay it.

It will be seriously ALOT cheaper from ebay. Expecially since MOPAC screws us over on prices. As well, If it is being shipped from outside canada ask the seller to put in the item description "warranty replacement" and that way you avoid any customs fees for shipping across the border

dude. I swear by Borla exhaust- I love the sound and the straight thru design...might be a little loud for some, but I'm young, wild, and have been killing my eardrums between drumming/cars for the last 5 years...and still going strong. Go Borla.

Borlas sound good on 7. I had them on my FC and loved them, gave her a nice tone. Theyll last. I was running rich for the flames and still sounded good after a year of abuse.
