does anyone here use this setup? if so is it untolerable

 

I have two such vids: http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu...9-bf6752459219

It's... tolerable. But the problem is, it's very loud, whether or not you want it to be. It doesn't sound very raspy at all, it's just LOUD. I just thought it was too obnoxious to keep, so went back to the stock midpipe. It's like having one of those loud, bassy stereos you can hear a block away, only you can't turn it down.

 

It's very very loud. I immediately took off the borla and went back to the stock exhaust till I had the turbo installed.

 

i have the borla with the supercat right now and also thinking about catless. i dont think the supercat is that loud and the sound is controllable. at normal driving the sound is almost non existance. (unless my cat is dead)

 

do you think that if i removed the resonator on the B&B midpipe and replaced with a different. larger resonator it would help or no?

 

I use to have the b&b resonated midpipe with borla exhaust and it sounded terrible. Really raspy, way to ricey for me. On a positive note the top end gain was really noticable.

 

Although I have never heard my exhaust from the outside of the car, the Atlanta guys such as Olddragger, rxeighter, Marietta8, silvereight, legocken, and others did get to hear mine for a whole weekend. OD and rxeighter both heard it from inside and outside. They told me that my car sounded like it should have been in the big bore class when I flew by the stands at Road Atlanta at 100+ mph and 9,000+ rpms. In my opinion, from the inside, below 3,500 rpms it is fairly quiet but above 3,500 and especially at WOT it does get darn loud but that is sometimes the price we pay for power. That's not to say that louder makes more power but at a certain point it becomes necessary to do so.
