Thumbs up Special Delivery.................BORLA!!!

What can Brown (UPS) do for me? They delivered probably one of if not the 1st BORLA dual-exhaust Systems here in the Dallas area!!!
More intriguing photos coming later during and after the install.......stay tuned!

What Vic said! I was hoping you'd get that soon. Need any help installing?

Actually I'm about to head up to the same shop that did my BORLA install on my GS400.

Wish me luck........

Good luck!

Can you weigh those before you install them?

Wooohooo, I'm green with envy. I expected dual muffs, but a crossflow ain't that bad. Please keep us informed about how it performs .

Good work TXstyle...now finish this one off, silence the critics, etc., etc., blah, blah.

1. Weigh that pig! Put the whole heap in one box...weigh the box. Remove the exhaust from the box...then weigh just the box...subtract the weight of the box from the total...easiest way to do it.
2. Dyno that pig! At least 2 baseline and 2 after install...for bonus points...dyno again in 2 weeks.
3. Take a mpeg clip on your digicam! Please include: sound at idle...reving engine...drive by from outside the car....and in car acceleration through the gears.

If you do this, you'll be our hero. Thanks for getting this up so quickly...there are a LOT of people interested in seeing this!

Another request...when taking pics, please post close up shots of how it fits around the rear sway bar. I want to make sure that if I get one, I'll be able to go with a 350Evo bar, etc. Thanks!

QUESTION...

Does the drawing not show a dual exhaust system running into a single muffler? Is that two mufflers stuck together, or a single muffler with two tips?
