Default What i did today

SO i had been tossing sorund replacing the center section of my borla exaust that holds the resonator with a straight pipe so i can switch it in and out.
Well, today i did that. jacked up my car, took off the borla center section. wire tied up the pipe off the engine and drove it around
WOW our cars unmuffled just straight through sound SOOOO AMAZING! it sounded mean as hell
i could even hear the turbo spool down as well as up!! it was SICK

so i then decided to do some work. i took the center section into a muffler shop adn for $40 they bent a 2.25" section of aluminized steel to match the center section. i got it in and damnnn, it sounds soo much nicer.

i would recommend this to ANYONE! it was eazy, quick, and non distructive. enxt i will get a cutout for the center section.

i also talked to borla and this doesnt void the million mile warrenty because i am not doing any damage to the borla pipes.

my only complaint is that since i dont have the brackets welded on yet, it rattles a little, but thats no big deal. the pipe clamps hold it fine until i weld some brackets on

I really need to put a remote cutout in my exhaust, now that my mid-muffler is gone.

I've been telling you and others to replace the resonator with a straight pipe for years.

If you don't... your simply retarded[>:]

Grats though, it is awesome.
