Not yet. I have a lot of options on mind for now, trying to find the right one. But will keep these on for now, I like how they ride.

I got my Borla mufflers from JEGS.com. Sweet place to order from, delivered exactly the right product, on the right time. Thank you JEGS Performance.


I will put them on tomorrow instead of the stock mufflers.
The Black Pearl exhaust tips don't fit the stock mufflers. They're too big, and the outlet on the stock muffler is an offset. So unfortunately I will have to take out the stock mufflers, which I love. Because they're the best noise cancelling mufflers I have ever seen. So smooth.

If the Borla's are too loud, they're going off. I am very happy with my electric cutout. It's loud only when I want it to.
I hope these mufflers won't be too loud. They're the Pro XS type from Borla. Supposed to be the most quite aftermarket performance mufflers, and they rank 4th in most power delivering mufflers.






Sound Off in Quietest to Loudest (Decibels):

1.Borla XS, 80db at idle, 90db at 2,000 rpm, 110db at WOT.
2.Hooker Maxflow, 80db at idle, 90db at 2,000 rpm, 120db at WOT.
3.Magnaflow, 82db at idle, 91 at 2,000 rpm, 114db at WOT.
4.Flowmaster, 82db at idle, 93 at 2,000 rpm, 115db at WOT.
5.Flowtech Warlock, 83db at idle, 92 at 2,000 rpm, 112db at WOT.
6.Dynomax UltraFlo, 83db at idle, 94 at 2,000 rpm, 113db at WOT.
7.Borla XR1, 83db at idle, 96db at 2,000 rpm, 118db at WOT.
8.Bassani Street, 83db at idle, 96db at 2,000 rpm, 120db at WOT.
9.Edelbrock RPM, 84db at idle, 93db at 2,000 rpm, 118db at WOT.
10.Bassani Real Street, 84db at idle, 96db at 2,000 rpm, MAX. (120+db).
11.Flowtech Afterburner, 86db at idle, 94db at 2,000 rpm, 115db at WOT.
12.Flowtech Terminator, 86db at idle, 94db at 2,000 rpm, 119db at WOT.
13.Hooker Aerochamber, 87db at idle, 94db at 2,000 rpm, 114db at WOT.
14.SpinTech, 87db at idle, 97db at 2,000 rpm, 116db at WOT.
15.MAC, 87db at idle, 98db at 2,000 rpm, 119db at WOT.
16.No Muffler, 91db at idle, 103db at 2,000 rpm, MAX. (120+db).

Thanks Mikey! I just put the BP exhaust tips on yesterday, that's why I didn't post on IG. But I post everything else related on here.

Bags are fantastic so far. Don't know how I lived without them till now

Appreciate it, will keep it in mind

Choosing the right shoe will be challenging, but we'll see.

Appreciate the kind words, brother!

It'd be difficult to pick a set of wheels that are as extravagant as the body kit.
I think you need something full face, concave, gunmetal...

(from the pictures thread)

Thanks for the suggestion. That car looks nice.

I'm looking for something a little bit more unique...

Love them. The car feels like it might've gained a horse or two
But seriously, I do feel like the car gained something performance wise, not too drastic, just
noticeable. I don't know how much to be precise, since I've never dyno'd my car.

But I am happy that they are still quiet, low end rumble but still quiet.

I'll upload a video when I get the time to do so.

Appreciate it as always Kira, thanks for passing by~
