I haven't really done any research yet.

I'll be at Cars and Coffee on Saturday. If you're going to be there, don't hesitate dropping me a message.
hi there, where in Houston did you have your exhaust installed?

Spotted a Molten Pearl RCF at intersection of S. Post Oak and San Felipe St. We exchanged waves.



Also spotted white RCF leaving a neighborhood in NW Houston. Around Grant and Eldridge area (leaving out specifics) today at around 4 PM. if you live in that neighborhood, I live directly across from your subdivision.

This exhaust is loud! It sounds good, but boy it's louder than I expected. No complaints though, have to give it a few days to get used to it.

It puts a smile on my face. My friend with fully bolt on ISF (i/e/h/tune) said it sounded great.

Yes installed it yesterday. Drove all over Houston Haha. Its loud, but no drone at high speed. Throttle seems very sensitive as to before though. Upshift sounds amazing.

I'm in Cypress area, but I work around Westheimer and Beltway 8 so I'm always around that area too. Hit me up if you ever wanted to meet somewhere in the middle. Do you drive a RCF?

hey guys, keep in mind a new exhaust will be much louder until it burns in and packing settles down. my apexi was super loud for about almost 1 month and now it is much more mellow and quieter.

I've heard that before, and I'm hoping that's true.

So after driving it for over two and a half weeks, I must say that I am LOVING this exhaust system. It sounds so mean and I have gotten many compliments from it. It makes all the right type of noises from gurgling to popping noise. The upshifts are addicting - it seems to pop everytime I drive aggressively. The downshifts are great as well. My gas milage sure has been terrible just because all of the aggressive driving just to hear the exhaust scream.

When I have the windows up and driving in normal mode at 70-80mph, no issues with drone. Sound almost stock - not loud at all. When I want to criuse there are no issues. Now on cold starts, it will be loud but it quiets down after a couple of seconds.

I will have pictures and videos up soon! Stay tuned!

Me and a couple of my friends did an impromptu and short photography sessions as well as some video clips of my new Borla exhaust. Here are the results:










Bonus: My best friend Krish (KRISH on CL) and his fully bolt on ISF (Intake/Exhaust/Headers/Tune)





Borla sounds - I will try to make a better one. But these will do as teaser for now.
