new exhaust

I got my new borla axleback exhaust with the diffuser on the frs last night. It seems to be a "sleeper" exhaust. pretty mild but when you get on the throttle she really wakes up. a bit louder would have been nice, but it looks really good.

The more I drive, the better the borla is sounding. Not as quiet anymore!

I installed it myself. Fitment is perfect and exhaust install was easy. The diffuser was a pita and took the longest to install.

is it a cat-back? and if it is, is it 3 inch? i was thinking about buying one but was wondering if it would fit my front pipe. since yours is stock and you installed it then it should fit my car as well.

It is a borla catback system. It is listed as a 2.5" front pipe on the description but all of my exhaust is stock except for the borla catback that I installed.

No drone on the highway. Sounds good 'n loud when accelerating. I'll be at the landing 630 till 700 tonight if you want to check it out. Engine isnt broke in yet so I dont go above 4k.
