installed borla exhaust

s2000isu · 04-11-2008, 03:39 PM

So a few days ago I installed a borla exhaust. I loveeeeeeeeeeeeee it. At idle its close to stock it has almost no drone. Full throttle it screams. It looks stock even uses stock style tips. In the video i rev it at 3500 first and then I take it to redline. Anyways I couldnt be happier with it.

sounds good, was the install easy? where'd you get it? and how much if you don't mind me askin. i've always been a big fan of borla, hence the questions.

Install was very easy. That exhaust comes in 4 pieces so getting it up there is a piece of cake. I got this exhaust used for a very good price. It was 375 shipped. If you get it new it runs about 900.

I also have a borla system on my 01. I like it because it looks factory, and when VTec kicks in it sounds great! sounds more high performance rather then ricey. Imo its still a little quiet,I'am wondering what a test pipe would sound with it though... But at the same time I dont want to be too loud, I'am trying to keep the S2K sleek and mature.

s2000isu · 07-30-2008, 01:22 PM

Its not that loud without a cat. It only gets loud at wot.

J'sS2K · 07-30-2008, 01:46 PM

That should sound really nice on downshifts. Sweet. How much is it?

s2000isu · 07-30-2008, 02:27 PM

its about 900

Vezna31 · 07-30-2008, 05:54 PM

I had a Borla exhaust on my Z28 with a straight pipe on the passenger side. Going through a tunnel ay full throttle sounded like a NASCAR was coming through. There is nothing better sounding than that with a V8....sigh!

f20milo · 08-01-2008, 08:10 AM

Did you get that made or was it alreadt made?

JDMzimbo · 08-01-2008, 08:36 AM

sounds real nice dude!

s2000isu · 08-02-2008, 09:29 PM

Thanks. It is a bolt on exhaust system.
