Anyone have a recording of a Borla Catback?

Hello. I was wondering if anyone out there might happen to have a recording of a 2nd gen NA with a Borla cat-back exahust. Headers/manifold, cat/no cat, whatever, I am just trying to get a handle on what kind of "character" this exahust has.
The recording they have on their site is obviously not an RX7. (doesnt sound like a rotary, and they have the same sound for all the mazda exahusts they have listed!)

Thanks!

I was under the impression that Borla, as just the muffler, was actually good for our cars.

im not settled on it i would like to see it dyno'd
If you havent seen it it looks just like a stock catback system.
I see it on ebay all the time for around 350 starting out
They do now carry a line called borla boomers and that is supposed to be the import mufflers lineup. They look like any other cheesy rice muffler you can buy for under 50 bucks but their price is around 250 a muffler.
We need two

I have the Borla catback on my vert. It sounds pretty much like stock. Maybe a hair deeper. I have had no problem with it and it definately looks better than stock.
