phuturephunk Posted March 19 Report Share Posted March 19 . . go with the function . . especially if it's cheaper . . and plus . . you may be able to switch out the tips so that it's more visually pleasing (not that I see anything wrong in the first place . .but . .to each his own) . . .

vin diesel Posted March 19 Report Share Posted March 19 Borla is a very good exhaust company but its specialty is American cars. You also have to take into consideration the sound it will produce. Borla's tend to ALOT of interior noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgmodel Posted March 19 Author Report Share Posted March 19 grrrr!!!! i dont want a lot of resonance or cabin noise just exterior, and not even that loud.... hrrrm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teknojunkee Posted March 19 Report Share Posted March 19 Any one Company doesnt have more interior noise. The louder outside the car, the louder inside the car. Depends on how your car is Insulated also. My freind has an IS300, loud exhuast outside, pretty quiet inside. I say go with Borla. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milamber3 Posted March 19 Report Share Posted March 19 Originally posted by dgmodel grrrr!!!! i dont want a lot of resonance or cabin noise just exterior, and not even that loud.... hrrrm? The borla I have only tends to get loud when I am really hitting it and thats when i want it to be loud so its all good. When i'm just driving normal its not noisy inside at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennEfer Posted March 19 Report Share Posted March 19 Definately go for function, not form. Going for form is like doing body work before engine work... a big no-no for anyone who is a REAL car buff. Go for speed and function before looks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cintron Posted March 20 Report Share Posted March 20 Originally posted by joeg you must get more than 15hp on that a4... turbos LOVE exhaust... No kidding man. The Blitz Nur-Spec exhaust on the Mr2 gives 15hp and 18 ft-lbs to the WHEELS.Hell DG, why not try something along the lines of a blitz exhaust or whatnot? They're tuned extraordinarily well.
