well i spent all night tuning instead of recording videos, but I promise I'll get them tomorrow (unless I go to flutag, then I'll get the video's after that But I still think the borla is amazing. I can't believe how well it muffles, but doesn't decrease boost response.



Before the "Y" it's 2.5", then it "Y"'s into two 2 1/4" pipes up to the round (approx. 8" diameter) mufflers, then the intercooled tips.



I'm seriously thinking about getting another cat back for my n/a if I decide to keep it.



Things to consider are that I have a turbocharged car obviously which is a muffler in it'self, so obviously a n/a will be a little louder, but considering the setup, I'd image it'd be a very mellow sound.



Also I have the racing beat downpipe and presilencer as well. So it is possible that the little back pressure created by this system causes the presilencer to work better as well.



I'll probably go out and snap a quick pic but videos tomorrow.

also i thought that the borla was going to be a lot heavier than the cork sport cat back, but after lifting both of them, I'd say the borla is only about 10lbs heavier, 15lbs at the MOST.



In total I'd say it weighs in at about 40 lbs maybe? That's a guestamite.
