To be fair I am sure you will be happy with borla. Its not like its ebay china crap quality. Have you looked into Corsa?? They make a nice cat back although it is a little heavy. Quality seems good on those too

Reason for me considering borla is I know a guy that has basically the same setup I'll have and it sounds nasty...over video at least

Video never does it justice haha. Mine doesn't sound nearly as good on video as it does in person.

I think I'll just try and find something used and if i don't like it try another

A different catback will also solve that issue. Solved mine as well. But I said all that already.

That's the plan!

I'd try the Q300. I did and it saved my ears when going up hills. If that's still not enough you'll probably need to go back to a catted header (I'm guessing you don't have any).

Watch the videos in my build thread closer to the bottom of the first post to hear what my car sounds on the track. Plenty loud at full throttle.

Have you look into Evasive ssp 70mm single exhaust? I had a Tomei 80mm exhaust and it was to loud for my taste. No drone and it sounds nice and it pretty quiet..

I'm actually going to look at a 80r today and hear it. If I don't get that then I'll check it out!

80r is also a very very loud catback

Thing 2 also agrees. A type 80R stock the rest of the way up is almost as loud as my full catless setup

At a cold start my max decibel was 108db with Tomei 80mm my current setup and on the dyno max decibel was 114. Now after I change to evasive version i tested and it 99db on cold start with the same setup exempt of different exhaust.
