IIRC the borla from andys is just the borla muffler and a small, small pipe off of it. You won't be getting a full exhaust. Trubendz.com is where you will want to go for that.

2.25 or 2.5.. 2.5 will be a bit louder and maybe rasp. If you're looking for sound more than performance go for the 2.25 definitely.

right on what kit would be best just a cat back or standard kit with resanator or standard kit with high flow cat i plan on puttin a race header on eventually for more sound

If you're going a full length race header don't bother with a high flow cat for now. The bigger the resonator you get the better it will sound really.

I've got the 2.5" Borla Trubendz catback with a Kami and no res. That shit sounds ricey as hell. You really want a resonator with it. I'll have pics tomorrow but I have a kit, so it might not be what you want to see.

They do but they don't use the S/R Borla which is the one we've been talking about here..

Get the pacesetter exhaust and just get a new flex pipe welded on to it. Everyone that talks shit on that exhaust is retarded, i had it for years with no problems and it sounded great, especially if you only want a cat back.

I love the sound of the Borla w/ the resonator.

Absolutely QFT.

I have it on my ZX2 and since the weather just started getting warm here again [75*+] and it sounds sooooo good. And now that I have a tune on it, I just love the burble I get during the shifts. :ropenana:

mine is a borla pro xs muffler 2.5 with a 3inch borla tip, no rasp at all. i LOVE the way this muffler sounds. its smooth and deep when idling and crusin and it smooths out when wide open. much better than the riceburners sounding like overgrown mesquitos...lol . $200 installed.

2.5 Trubendz resonated with a Borla ProXS.

Hotshot header and no cat at that time too.

These ones?

$125.00 isn't too bad.

I gave just under $500 for the entire exhaust. It is mandrel bent stainless steel. It came with the hangers welded on and all the needed hardware. I'm certain it is the ProXS. It is the Borla that Trubendz offers.
