Borla ATAK versus Stainless Works Retro Chambered

[Ace0751]

Got the ATAK on my car and have to say I love the sound of it on startup and when cruising. Can't wait to get my headers installed, will post a video of how it sounds after installation.

As promised here is a quick video I made with the Borla exhaust system and the sp headers.

What do we think the difference would be between these two systems on an LSA ZL1 as I'm also trying to decide between these two. Headers would be my first choice but I can't tune do to warranty reasons.

The differences between the two are similar on the ZL1 to what they are on the SS. The Retro Chambered is slightly louder and considerably deeper.

That's what I figured. All the YouTube videos and sound clips seem to be with headers so it's hard to tell what kind of a difference either make as far as sound level over stock especially on the LSA. What do you guys do as far as warranty a or exchanges go on the SW system as I've heard some nightmare stories on that system bolting up and the modifications needed to get it to fit?

We and Stainless Works will back you up 100% and make sure you get taken care of. In 5 years of being a Stainless Works distributor I can only recall once that a customer had a legit fitment issue. It should be pretty straightforward and definitely not require and modification. In fact, if it ever came to that you should call before you start cutting. Once you do there is only so much that can be done.

What if I get the stainless works Catback and cut off the xpipe and replace with H pipe? How will that change the sound?

Good to know, thanks. I'll probably be sending you a on shortly to place an order. Gotta check pricing first

I love my Stainless Works Retro Chambered catback. It's very loud with the 1 7/8" Stainless Power headers and high flow cats. It has a great, deep, muscular, somewhat exotic tone. I did plenty of research before choosing it since I wanted to do it right and forget about it.

I've not heard of any issues with SW.

Ok bro I think I'm going to get the Stainless Works cat back. For my 2013 1LE single turbo. I'm just curious to knkw if I should get the one with the cat delete or the retro chambered one ?

I sent you a private message by the way. Thanks
