Borla Diffuser, pics inside!
Here are a few pics of the Borla diffuser fitted on the car with their exhaust.
I'm really liking this! |

That is quite nice.. I'm sure it will help fix the drag that is created by removing the stock muffler can.

Any videos of the sound? I love the design, but I'm having trouble getting past it being Borla..

Not bad. Much better than the $700 one from Subaru.
Not sure if this would fit on a few aftermarket exhaust

Hmmm, I don't suppose they'll have one that covers the stock axle-back and better lines up the outer strakes with the profile at the bottom of the bumper...

My understanding is that this is an optional component TO the exhaust. It works directly in conjunction with their exhaust. I'm sure you could rig it up to work with some though.

The Borla set up is nice! One of our favorites.
It is true the the diffuser will only work with their exhaust for a simple bolt on install. You can always do your own fab work for other systems. |

Touché! However, I'll follow up with I guess what I should have originally said... It just looks cheap to me.
