I talked to Chris Cortez down at racing beat and he said that he would probably have one to ship for me on friday or monday at the latest. I actually expected to have to wait longer but hopefully I'll have it by next week now =)

LoL wow that does seem kinda heavy but then again Stainless isnt exactly light. Ahh I could care less if its a couple lbs heavier than stock at this point, it sounds so good I just want it!

They are currently on backorder again. They told me they should have more next week sometime. If anyone wants to preorder one give me a call and it will ship as soon as Racingbeat gets them.

I am sure the box is also a good 10 pounds since it does need to be rather solid.
I gotta say I was behind a WB car for most of my commute this morning, and I am still surprised at how big and ugly the stock can is.

It'll be here today [UPS Tracking]. My tires are toast so I can't autox the car right now. I should have new tires and some springs in by the 18th so I'll go then. I might even put the exhaust in tonight when I get home if I'm not too tired. I put my name on the preorder list back in late Oct 03 so that's what 6 months. I can't belive it's finally here

I figured if I kept waiting to compare the Borla with another new exhaust, I'd never get anywhere. Now I wish I'd waited just a few weeks longer. Crap for crap..
Such a nice sounding exhaust. Still, I'd like to hear what it sounds like on start up.

What is it about the Borla cat-back that you don't prefer? Your input is of great value to us as we're always looking to improve our products. Thanks for your help.
DOES ANYONE KNOW WHO ACTUALLY MAKES THE RB EXHAUST? I'm fairly certain that rb does not have exhaust manufacturing capabilities.

Well I think I speak for everyone when I say that the borla sounds great!! The only reason I sided against it was that weird bend in it. Just seems to scare me for some reason. Ive heard the borla in person and it sounds amazing. The RB clip sold me though, a bit of a different tone and looks to be a much smoother design. I would've ordered the borla already if it wasn't for that odd bend in it.
