Sound: Borla Touring Axle-Back (11937) + Blitz SUS filter

I just installed those and shot a video, in case anyone's curious how that sounds (of course there's loads of videos out there of this setup, but why not one more? lol)

Sounds awesome, throw in some UEL headers and the car is complete!

Good clip, thanks for posting.

Sounds a lot like my Nameless axle back.

I got the same axle back on my 86 and I love it. Insane how much better it sounds going from the factory muffler to a slightly smaller Borla muffler. The tips also fill out the bumper cut outs perfectly.

Only thing that surprised me is how damn loud the cold start is now.

Didn't surprise me because I had Works ABM on my 2015. It had a very similar, loud cold start.. I like it

That sounds great. Might have to add that to my new BRZ.


How was the install?

Very easy, its just an axle back muffler which is like 2 bolts if remember correctly. The hangers are probably the worst part...

Sounds nice. Similar to Corsa, a more "mature" exhaust note. 300$ less but the Corsa is a full catback.

Yup hangers are a pain! Get yourself tire lube used by shops to install tires onto rims. That will help a great deal with hangers

I should also mention that retail is $730 but it can be found for $650. That's what I paid
