For me I have had other exhaust on other vehicles and Borla is the only choice for me. Now after looking at the price difference between the axle back and full exhaust I decided why not go all the way and get it done all at once, with a bit more saving I orederd the full system.

Just had it out for the first time yesterday with the Borla exhust and I could not be any happier sounds great. The one thing with the full cat back is you also get the X-pipe to go with it.

I could not agree any more. Only have had mine out once since the new exhaust and I had a guy in a 70 Shelby tell me how good it sounded while he was behind me.

As stated, try to think about your future plans for the car/exhaust. If you just want sound, save yourself a bunch of cash and just get the axle backs, they will still sound amazing. The factory exhaust piping is actually very good, and changing it will not get u any HP gains.

Plans plans plans.

I went with just the rear section because my plan is exactly to not go crazy with the exhaust. Just looking for that Borla sound and didn't want to spend > $1000.

Went with the S-types + Corsa X - couldn't be happier with my setup.

I got the Borla Atak System Catbacks. By getting the whole system comparing to the stock catbacks besides sound, the Borla system is half the weight of the stock. Almost 60lb lighter. I would think its the same for The Borla "S" system.
