Anyone installed one of these exhaust systems yet? If so, what are your thoughts?

Hmm, I remember someone posted vids of the Borla system and it sounded pretty good. See if you can find it in a search. He was from Quebec I think.

Yeah, good question.... I thought that the Borla sounded better than any other system I have heard thus far!

I always thought of the Borla Exhausts as one of the better systems on the market. Definitely a nice sound.

I helped put one on Zpirates car a few weeks ago... He's a Borla fan and has one on his 350. H-pipe design, sounds good. A little higher pitched than my Stillen, but he likes it a lot. The slip fit joints were a little bit of a PITA (he bought it used) but we got it on. Just a warning though, the pipes hang a bit low..Seems as low as the FI system. If the car is dropped it could be a problem..

Sounds good going down the street but I haven't driven the car with it installed..

Wow! I forgot you took those pictures Modshack.

Yes I like the Borla. It's a nice quality system with a good sound. The sound is similar to the Borla on my 350Z, but slightly higher pitched. The car is louder than stock at idle, but not too loud and it really sounds good when you get on it.
