Default Borla Exhaust Kit

Has anyone had any experience with this kit or just Borla exhaust in general?

I'm a little wary because of the low price.

I had Borla on my 5.0. It is a very high quality company. I don't know about now but at one point they have a 1 million mile warranty on their systems. Borla has been one of the more pricey brands for the domestics but cheap compared to imports. I have no idea what it will sound on our cars but it sounded very nice on my mustang.

Wow, wonder how long they've had that out for, I remember when I was looking for exhaust all they has was axle back.

I bought generic mufflers and tips from borla and had custom pipes at a local shop for cheap and it was the best thing I did for my car imo. The sound was deep but quiet on the highway.

That is actually a pretty good price for a whole setup. Ive heard it before on an SC400 and it does exactly what the description states.

That borla system looks like its for the 400. I would go with the tanabe's, it's gonna be cheaper and still sound great.

Thanks for the pics. thats the sound i'm going for so i may wind up going with this system.

I didn't see any other kits from Borla.
