Never need the radio again

Hey guys, just finished installing my Borla exhaust. Sounds amazing!! install wasn't too bad, but the tips are a little crooked. Ill post some pics and a video once I get them even. Anyone who is considering exhaust, I would definitely recommend Borla.

They do sound good! Note that you will get some drone at about 75mph or so, but it's not too bad!

There are alot of threads about this with the automatic. Basically you need to tune out your AFM if you don't want the drone. (all 8 cyl) The risk is voiding your warranty :(
