I agree, but it's the quality and location of my video that's the problem, not the exhaust. I will try to get some better videos.

Got a new video from Borla, obviously their equipment is much better than mine and this video speaks a little more true to the sound of this exhaust (although you really need to hear it in person). I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I do. Thanks again to Borla for all their help with my car.

I will be going to as many meets in the SoCal area as possible in the coming weeks so if you see my car, just come say Hi.

Same, it sounds amazing in this video. Hopefully it isn't priced above the competition too much, I think I'd prefer this over the SRT exhaust, but if this one is $$$$ then I may go with SRT.

The XR-1 Mufflers dont come in anything below 2.5" inlet/outlet size so I would bet its 2.5"

I really like the sound as well! Great job Borla! Some performance results would be the icing on the cake.

I measured the outside diameter and it was indeed 2.5".

I also got some dyno result numbers. Borla says @4700rpm there's a gain of 5-7 whp/tq...
Actually a little better than I expected for a cat-back alone. Hmmmmm, I wonder what's next for Borla
