Well I made a decision and I am happy with it. The borla catback system sounds amazing in the power bands but when I want it quite it is quite.

Yeah that's the same reason I got my sp elite loud when you want it to be and quite when you want it. Glad you got a cool exhaust I like the borla and was kinda wishing I waited for it to come out.

I seriously think the SpeedFactory V1 is unjustifiably overlooked on this forum... Great quality, perfect fitment, AMAZING sound (quiet at idle/cruise, barks when you want it to).

I'm actually seriously considering this exhaust. Do you have any other components that change the sound of the exhaust or just the catback? If you only have the catback, do you think we'd be able to meet up so I can hear it in person? It's at the top of my list but I'd love to be able to hear it in person before purchasing it.

Shhhhh.. Don't tell too many people so we can have the awesome sound to ourselves . I totally agree and can't wait to install mine with the overpipe and catted front pipe. It nearly gives it the UEL rumble without actually having the headers.

Just the catback and a K&N filter (doesn't significantly affect sound).

And yea, I have a relatively busy (and inconsistent) schedule, but I'd work with you to arrange that.

Come to this: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=32692

You'll get to hear it in person, and on the dyno!! Won't see before and after numbers for the exhaust, but we'll see what it does before and after a tune with it.

It's out of the price range of the OP, but this exhaust is talking to me The sound, the quality, the stats, the design.. do you happen to know how much it weighs? Can't find much online, although it must weigh less than stock.
