Burton, I just had the rest of my Borla "catback" installed and Hoooooooollllyyyyyyyy Shhheeeeeeetttt. I never thought I'd fall in love with the car all over again. I have the stypes with borla overaxles and a bassani X pipe. I just prefered their design a lot more. I honestly think it sounds different too.
The only way I can describe it is that its almost like the car has long tubes. Thats the type of tone it has. The car growls now. I mean the sound changed completely. I'm gonna try to get a video, i made one but it sounds nothing like the car in person from in the car.

Can you please tell me the part # of the borla tidbits you bought, and where you that from? Thanks in advance.

Burton, I saw you were thinking about letting a shop do the work. Go for it, just find someone you trust or hangout and watch. I'm super nervous with people touching my car too. But the overaxle pipes will basically never come out on jacks stands. I did my ABs and then had my mechanic do the OTA and X pipe. Good thing too, cause he said it was off by a 1/2-1" and needed some convincing.
Holy damm it sounds sweet. And he only charged me $70, not bad in my book when the avg local labor rate is $105

Thanks man... Tbh, I was really considering getting my trusted local shop to do the install this time, the same time as rotating my tires. Not that I can't or don't know how to do it... I've done all of Marilyn's installs myself. It's just that with the 2 kids growing up, I just am running out of time lately...
Thanks xar. You know darn right there will be pics and videos and reviews hahahahaha

As for the shop, yeah... I'd rather not succumb myself to bleeding knuckles, scraped arms, chances of stripping bolts, and swearing like a drunken sailor nonstop.... All just to save 75 bucks of labor. My time with my family is worth more than that...
Either way, I'm stoked for it. The only borla satisfaction I've gotten the last few months is starting her up in garage and driveway
I wish man... I love helping others too. Am located in Iowa.... Home of just a handful of stangs lol
