    The Borla has a pretty deep sound as for performance gain I found that removing the screen by the mas air flow sensor greatly improved engin response. A few people have done it with out any negative affects. I would highly recomend doing this as it only takes a few min. just don't drop anything into your intake. The screen is like a honeycomb. I just shoved mine out with the back of a screwdriver. Good luck.

    I had flowmaster put on mine.. and they actually installed a 40series which I didn't want. It does sounds deep and mean.. but the drown at about 35 is bad. It idles nice but when you get on it it's pretty loud.

    Doc4h,
    Thanks for being the Borla test subject, I've been looking for something that flows better than stock,yet isn't as loud as the PV2.This sounds like the "ticket" (just placed my order ystrdy.)
    Well, TTYL...I gotta go wait by my mailbox.

    Where did you get your Borla? There are lots of performance shops in my area, just checking if you had a recommendation? Online or a local shop or chain? Cost?

    Thanks

    I did a search for Borla Mufflers, AJ USA had them for $128.97+7.00 shipping.
    Borla's site was $154.00 & I didn't bother to ck. what they wanted for shipping.Sorry I'm not quite advanced enough to post a link maybe someday when I grow up.
    Also, when you get there, click on "universal exhaust", then scroll dwn. to universal performance mufflers #40658.

    Anybody have sound clips of aftermarket mufflers they have installed?

    Didn't think I'd ever be saying this, but I'm probably going with something like the Borla soon myself. I'm finally just tired of the response the PV2 gets from other drivers. It's like a switch that turns on the idiot in some people. I get enough of that just driving a VX in the first place, let alone with the sound it makes. I don't want that much low-end noise anymore. I've seen one too many bad things almost happen because someone thought I was punching it and decided to punch theirs.
