Borla ATAK Catback exhaust question - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

MzCamaro · 07-08-2012, 10:15 PM

I apologize for being ignorant on this subject, but I'm looking to order a Borla ATAK Catback Exhaust System for my new 2012 2SS (L99 engine) Camaro. I'm on Amazon right now checking out the exhaust and it says it won't fit on my 2012 Camaro. I thought I saw some other members on C5 that have the Borla ATAK system installed (unless they have the axleback and not catback system?) Anyway, if anyone can tell me if the ATAK system will fit on my 2012, that would be awesome. Thanks!!!!!!!!

A sponsor should chime in on this one... I recomend you purchase from one of them, Im sure they'd give you a better or deal or at least the piece of mind that your ordering a piece of equipment that is 100% for your car! Good Luck

With the L99 you're going to get way more AFM noise and drone with the Borla system.

Have you looked at the SOLO catback, axleback systems both with J-pipes?

I would highly suggest those unless you don't mind drone and a lot more AFM noise. (They have a deep sound similar to Borla, but different in their own way - I absolutely love my SOLO axlebacks..can only notice AFM a tiny bit now and only under 50 MPH - when in stock trim I never noticed it)

I ordered from http://juicedmotorsports.com/ and had an excellent transaction. Highly recommend.

You can also go Corsa for completely drone free exhaust..but Corsa is always more costly and is much raspier than any of the other exhaust makers.

Yes, it'll fit! check out my video in my sig!

I have no drone and that surprised me a lot!!

MarylandSpeed · 07-09-2012, 01:30 AM

I will fit fine! Another thing to note is that we have these in stock which a lot of places do not. If you have questions, our contact info is in the sig

Ah! I didn't even think about the AFM noises or drone issues. Is it more annoying than anything? I can tolerate quite a bit... :P

Installed mine myself on my 2012 with no fitment issues. Also ordered from Amazon but I have prime and the Amazon credit card so I get points towards future purchases.

Sales@Phastek · 07-09-2012, 10:39 AM

yup like all the others have already said will fit fine and also in stock in our warehouses.

MzCamaro · 07-09-2012, 02:57 PM

Thanks everyone! I'm going to order the exhaust sometime this week!

fargomike · 07-09-2012, 03:16 PM

Not loud enough?! Wow! Haha. My worry was it being too loud ;P

NoynuR · 07-09-2012, 03:58 PM

I had the Atak it was loud then got Kooks 1 7/8 LTs with high flow cats.. man did that car scream. Screamed so loud i got pulled over 15 mins after i installed my LT's. Got a warning ahah worth it though.

NoynuR · 07-09-2012, 03:59 PM

Oh i've owned the Atak and the S-type. I liked the Atak much better way more aggressive sound.

Even after LTs?

chappy48 · 07-09-2012, 11:11 PM

I've been contemplating getting the ATAK system to replace my S system, but I have LT's and my exhaust is already VERY loud. Plus from what I've heard from both the S has more of a deeper tone, while ATAK has more of a raw tone to it. I like the deeper tone, especially with LT's. I even think Borla recommend their touring exhaust if you have LT's.
