Borla Exhaust install question - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I'm installing a Borla S type axle back on my 2015 Camaro SS. Directions say to cut 2.32" from box seam. When you look at stock muffler there is really no defining box seam. Any one with information where they measured from would be greatly appreciated. Tried attachment picture don't know if it loaded

I don't have a measurement for you, but I can tell you when I did mine, I cut at the weld on the muffler to give me as much pipe as possible and then put the new muffler in position so I could see where to cut again. Of course, I did not read the instructions.

Any way you could give me a measurement from left side exhaust hanger pin end by rearend to where Borla muffler pipe is clamped

Update- I ended up measuring from the horizonal seam on the muffler 2 1/4" hopefully to give me some extra adjustment. If I was to do it again I would use 1 1/2" instead to give room for adjustment. I made the 2. 1/4" work, more so because I had a couple 2 bolt stainless lap band clamps so I could cheat some. Borla tec support wasn't much help in my opinion. Never replied to email and tec on phone couldn't tell me where to measure from only say just hold it up under the old muffler and eye ball. Right and your instructions say 2.32
