Borla Type S Cat-Back Exhaust & Borla Long Tube Headers

Hey Everyone,

I just spoke to my performance shop and they mentioned that the Borla Type-S exhaust system coupled with Borla's long tube headers has a VERY LOUD sound and quite a bit of drone as well. Does anyone have any videos of how these two sound together on the V8 or can offer any recommendations/advice from personal experience?

Thanks.

i would suggest kooks long tubes high flow cats (if you need them for inspection)
and a maganflow exhaust sounds so sweet
feel free to pm me if you would like some pricing

I am pretty set on Kooks and Borla S too and did not consider this to be "overly" loud from prior research. Are the Borla headers that bad?

Dont care for Magnaflow stuff at all...sorry

if you look in the borla comparison thread their is a link to you tube with borla s type with borla long tubes. i know it is hard to really get a feel for how it sounds on a computer but it will give you a good idea. i really don't think it is that loud.

To the best of my knowledge Borla does not make high flow cats for the long tube setup. I would assume that you can bolt on any kind of aftermarket cat up to the borla long tubes.
