Borla Catback #140496 Exhaust
 
Currently looking into installing this exhaust system on my BRZ. What do you guys think? Good move? Bad move? Thanks!

I am sure it will sound good being borla but I can tell you the quality will be lacking as I have their headers and they are much lower quality then I would have liked to see, but I got them at a wicked price so I don't even care anymore haha!

But Million Mile Warranty if you have any problems.

I had a borla axle back. It was pretty decent. No glaring issues and the quality was acceptable for the asking price.

That is true! Good point haha.

I have the #11839 axle back, and I really like it.

The Cat back like you reference does seem to hang a bit low in regards to the muffler, if that is a concern. I installed one on a friends FR-S, and install was pretty easy.

What do you guys think about the Invidia N1 Exhaust? Would it be a better exhaust than the Borla I'm looking to get?

What are your goals here? Power gains will be minimal so it's really all about the sound, right?

I highly recommend searching on youtube to listen to sound clips. The N1 is pretty loud (now, that's subjective so YMMV). The Borla sounds a little more refined.

Quality wise, Invidia may have a better quality, but I think the price typically reflects that as well.

Please share your goals and your target price range, and I'm sure folks can help you consider some good options.

It's just about sound for me. Just make the car louder. I like how both sound and I can spend about $700-$750

If you simply want to make the car louder, go berk muffler delete. Have heard it in person, it sounds pretty good and def louder over stock.

Also saves you a bit of cash for more car parts! :D

You have future plans about installing a header? Or just a catback for sound and outstand from others?

Wow I like the sound it makes and it's cheaper! Are there any cons about it over an Invidia or Borla? Thanks for suggesting it!

Honestly, i dunno about the cons... Was going to get the Borla or magnaflow originally until I discovered the Corsa exhaust.

Beautiful sound and no drone at all. Downside was it cost 1k but worth it!
