i think it soudns really good... the video taken from my digital camera doesnt do it jsutice on what its like in person...only draw back is its just really spendy ($800 if you buy new) but i definately feel (maybe its in my head) that i had a power gain when i got it over the stock exhaust. the white car is my little sisters 05 grand prix gt (just turned 16...wtf i bet she crashes it in a month)

YA NO **** lol.... i was agreeing with your decision on possibly getting aftermarket exhaust lol.... but to each his own i guess

but anyways... doesnt anyone else have drive by's or anything where i can get a feel of something other than stock or borla? (i have never heard anything else!)

youtube is full of videos. also check out putfile.com and photobucket. there are a few clips in the noobie guide in the exhuast section as well.

i would second that the borla cat backs sound excellent. I am partial cuz I have one, but I would say they are a great choice, perfect mix of classy euro rumble without the farts and with a surprising performance bump . I matched mine with the labree HFC and couldn't be happier. Pricewise, its pricey, but you get what you pay for. Try to find it used w/ low miles, thats what I did and did the turboback for about 550 installed.
