Why i love Borla ,, and why i bought another one. 56 k warning

i bought borla for the first time for my cougar .. it was a little quiet. i gutted my pre cats and it opened it up big time.. made my 2.5 v6 sound like a nicely tuned 4.6 mustang gt. sounded great ..

well i needed a exhaust badly on my fc so i decided to go with borla again. it was also the cheapest hehehe. but i must say that borla still impresses me with their workman ship and summit racing impresses me with their service.. i ordered it on tues and i got it today. i would recomend summit and borla to anyone.. as for the sound of the borla i cant say anything yet .. i cant start my car till my clutch, flywheel, and pressure plate come it .. hopefully tomorrow i pray

here are some pics

sorry... but cable is outa my price range. Why are you trying to force people to get cable anyway? not everyone has enough money in their budget or see it as a practical investment.

I'd also like to know the diameter. I'm either going with the borla (full stainless, good price) or racing beat (it's rb) when my rp catback needs replacing. However, I'd probably get it through nopistons.com ($390).

alwayssideways, can you post some pics when you get it installed? IMO, the tips are the biggest drawback to the borla and I have yet to see a decent picture of a 7 with it installed.

haha jp, its all good ^_^

I think I might go with a borla exhaust someday, they seem good quality and also are the cheapest from what I hear. I just wouldn't want them too loud ^^"

a little over $400 for the set.

I have it on my truck, and will get it when it comes time to do exhaust on the 7
