The Borla, IMO, is also the best sounding system with no pre or main cats. Its a nice low aggressive growl.

Where did you order your Borla system from? I went to the Borla website and it was almost $900.

What about Bosal? Are they any good as well? I heard that the Bosal have a better growl than others. I dont like those high pitch growls like those ricers have. I prefer like a Ferrari or Porchse growl.

I have the Borla and I love the sound. but I'm not crazy about the fitment. The passenger tip is lower than the driver's side and my mechanic said it's the length of the hangers that are causing it. He tried his best to fix it, but it just doesn't look right.
If I was to get another one, I'd probably look into that Truebendz with the Borla mufflers.

Have you tried a different exhaust grommet? A "shorter" one would bring the tip up. I've seen old worn grommets get stretchy and loose. I've also seen various sized grommets sold at Pep BOys, Auto Zone, etc.
Local CEGer has a Boral, sounds great, fits perfect.

Like I've said before, buying a Trubendz Borla would give you the sound and performance of the Borla kit without the high price tag.
