I do like the sound tho and it is pretty loud as I set off a car alarm by starting the car today but I want the sound like the borla video.

I think I am going to go with the axleback...I want a nice throaty rumble that gets loud when you get on it, but I don't need to blow holes through walls so the axleback may be my choice....

you L99 or LS3? How is drone / AFM?

After some research, I installed the Atak system (Cat back) on my SS Camaro six speed. Only issue with the system is that I have significant drone inside the car under 2000 rpm. Anyone else having this issue? I have contacted Borla, but no help yet.

Do you have a tune on the car?

Did not know that. You learn something new everyday..

driser · 07-19-2010, 01:00 PM

I do not have a tune on my car. So far I have added a K&N cold air intake and the Borla Atak cat back. Can you tell me more about the tune?

I have a set of MRT on my LS3 with the 2 k drone.
How or what type of tune.

It is installed and sounds awesome. I am sure my neighbors love me now.

Yes, it all fits in one box....

There are several flavors for the Camaro now.....
In the ATAK Series you have the
Camaro ATAK CatBack Exhaust System

Camaro Axleback ATAK Exhaust
Camaro ATAK Catback Exhaust for Camaros with Ground Effects Package
Camaro ATAK Axleback Exhaust for Camaros with Ground Effects Package

Then you have the Borla Camaro Catback Touring System (which does not sound much different than stock. For the person who wants the increased performance with no additional change in exhaust note)

and then in the Borla Sport lineup (which is my favorite)...
Camaro Borla Sport Catback
Camaro Borla Sport Axleback Exhaust

and the only 3" Borla system (OEM system and the other above systems are 2.5")
Borla 3" Camaro Sport Catback Exhaust

Some thoughts before purchasing any of them.....

All of the Axle back systems require cutting them OEM system (which i am not a fan of, just in case you ever want to go back to stock). There is also one more "dirty"secret about the Axelbacks which needs to be known....When you install the Axleback it leaves in place the OEM Pre Muffler that is up towards the middle of the car. Not a big deal, but it DOES change the exhaust note slightly as compared to the Catback systems and does not make the system a true dual exhaust as the Catback does.

Both Axle Back and Catback systems are great systems and make a huge improvement in sound, but if you can afford to spring for the extra cash, do it right and get the Catback.

From a sound perspective, you have the touring which sound not much different than stock. Then the Sport (my favorite) which bumps it up a notch from the sound perspective, but not too much. At the ATAK which is the most aggressive sounding of them all.

All of Borla's systems are awesome, but thought prospective shoppers would want to know the down and dirty on each one...

See ya,

Jim
