Just got my ehaust in yesterday so I snapped some pics considering there seems to be some confusion or lack of info about this catback.
I bought it to replace my corksport catback that was driving me batty on interstate drives and turning everyone's heads (including the cops) First let me tell you that everything is included with this kit to get it on the car providing you have the stock exhaust hangers. Including a nice exhaust clamp, bolts and exhaust gaskets. Second Everything went together as it should I installed the "Y" then hung the mufflers, then connected the Y to the mufflers, then tightened it down to the midpipe, and it came out perfect. Let me say that if the corksport was an 8 out of 10, then the borla setup would be about a 3 out of 10. It is extremely quiet (on a turbo car). I'm talking a step louder than stock, even with a downpipe and presilencer. You'd think that restriction would equivilate to a loss in power, and while I have noticed just a little later spool up time (only noticable if your staring at boost gauge/rpm) all the same power is there. And considering I'm going from a "straight-out type" exhaust, to a stock replacement setup. That's pretty damn remarkable. Here's some pics of the exhaust it'self, I will have a couple pics of it installed and a quick video of it idleing after work today. https://www.nopistons.com/gallery/al...4/DSC00646.JPG https://www.nopistons.com/gallery/al...4/DSC00647.JPG https://www.nopistons.com/gallery/al...4/DSC00648.JPG https://www.nopistons.com/gallery/al...4/DSC00649.JPG https://www.nopistons.com/gallery/al...4/DSC00651.JPG |
Looks nice! Cant wait to see it on your car and see some vid of it.
You silly bitch. |
When I say the corksport is 8 out of 10 and the borla is 3 out of 10, I'm talking volume.
It's kindof a nice change to have a hella fast car that, doesn't make all kinds of racquet getting you there. I wonder how many tickets it will save me too, (im now officially a sleeper) |
for the time i had my car i had absolutely no problems with the cops...maybe its the ones around ur area
|
whats the deal on the welds?
they look like someone who just learned to weld |
I'm assuming they are all hand welded as opposed to someplaces that just do robot welding. They don't look the best, but I did look it over thoroughly and it is a solid job, not the best looking tho.

It's not that I think they'll chase me down and ticket me for the volume, but if you try to give it some gas to play with a ricer or something, everyone is going to know it. |
mine is louder then hell (on my prelude) nobody cares around here unless you get pulled over for suspection of narcodics and they find nothing so they give you an exhaust ticket for the hell of it...
