No no, yours is good, but nobody else has a single video with all four options recorded on the same equipment. Best way to hear the differences is all.

I've never had Borla's on a Mustang but I do have a Borla Cat-back on my 98 chevy ext-cab Z71 truck and had one on the 2004 Monte Carlo SS Dale Jr. edition that I traded in on my Mustang and neither one has the weep holes and I never got any instructions to drill holes in the mufflers.


The system on my truck has been on it since about March 2003 and the muffler is not rusted out(single duel in duel out muffler) but does have some light rust spots in places on the muffler as well as the pipes. It has been driven in bad weather.


The system on the Monte was only on for a couple of years before I traded it and I never drove the car in bad weather so the exhaust system still looked new. It had duel mufflers.


I have the Roush AB on my Mustang and it has the weep holes. I noticed that the mufflers are already getting small rust spots on them and I have not driven it in bad weather other than taking it to Galveston TX on vacation back in September. I'm guessing the salty air next to the ocean is what did that.


The Borla S type was my second choice over the Roush. The lower price of the Roush won out. Enjoy yours.

Sounds so much better and not too loud at all. When idling not far from stock but very different from stock when shifting gears and quick accelerations. I'm happy for now.

I'm not a very good video taker. I tried taking a before video and to me it sounded very distorted and then I ran out of time before i could try again. Will definitely try to make an after video.

The S-Types on my car make me a criminal where I live. My daughter says she can hear me putt'n down the street 4 blocks away from her upstairs bedroom. Every so often, I will set off a car alarm when I hold 1st or second while driving slowly through the neighborhood. On my first cold start I thought, I'm in so much trouble now...

Tomorrow you guys will have to take turns driving past one another for another thrill.

I've read that tuners can turn off the high RPM cold start. I may have to do that in the future, it's getting a little annoying.

Oh ok, yea only do that if you want to make it louder. It won't change the tone much.
