Thread: Does anyone still sell the Borla setup?

  1. #1

    Default Does anyone still sell the Borla setup?

    Do any shops or online stores still have new Borla exhaust systems for the SVT?

    I believe most list it as discontinued, you would have to call around and see if anyone has any in stock. you could go trubendz Borla ... or buy used

    After hearing the borla vs. the trubendz, I really would prefer to find the borla. BAT still lists it... and not as discontinued... But the price is quite high.

    you can buy a trubendz kit that comes with a borla muffler, both resonated and non resonated, why not just go that route?

    or even just the tubing kit and then a seperate Borla muffler.

    the straight borla isn't going to be as loud and that sounds like what he is after ...

    probably your best bet would be to buy a tubing kit from somewhere, like trubendz, and then buy your own borla mufflers/ resonators. im sure you can get close to, if not, the same sound that the original borla kit had. and it will most likely be cheaper than taking a chance and buying the one off of BAT, if they still have any that is.. otherwise the only borla "kit" you can buy is the trubendz version..

    Yeah I don't want something too loud. Stock is pretty loud as it is and I'd like just a bit more. I'm planing to do headers with this too and I already have the BAT high-flow cat & y-pipe

    I'll be looking used but I'll also give BAT a call on it too.

    and the Borla is 2.25" piping (like stock SVT) where as trubendz is 2.5"

    Maybe you could find out what types of mufflers/resonators are installed in the borla and then do a custom SVT exhaust with the same components?

    I have msds headers + borla and I think it sounds tits!

    I know this guy that works kinda cheap, and he's done this exact setup before.
