One cool thing about the Borla is its not a loud rumbler at cruise or everday drving. Hit 1/2 throttle to WOT and it sound like the world is commming to an end. Great for sleepers.

Haven't really checked yet, Im going out now to clean the air filter and change the oil and make a few updates to my tune, then I'll reset everything and take her out for a while and get some sound clips in. It is SS and no I have not done the headers yet, those will be coming soon though, very soon. I can tell you it is extremely quiet in the cab though, I had to have my wife drive by me so I could hear it after it was installed to see how loud it really was at part throttle. At WOT it is very similar to the cutout though, just not as harsh in the cab.

@truckin This thread is worthless without sound clips!!! Let's here that bastard roar!
I know I know I will be doing it in about an hour after I get everything else done. I only got up a little over an hour ago, its only 10:30 here....

I never said I was ditching it... I have a feeling it is going to stick around for a while yet.

Sounds great. Mine sounds a little different, maybe because I've got duals. Don't worry about the neighbors, they will get used to it

Its probably because you have headers on yours and mine is running with the stock manifold and Y. That will change soon though...
