Final 2 Exhausts

hey guys/gals, ive been exhaust shopping for some time and have narrowed it down to 2 different catback exhausts. The Greddy SE and The Borla, I was curious as to which would be better for me to get. Just looking for a second opinion bc i have trouble making up my mind >.< lol. Any info or help would be appreciated thanks! =D

I have the Agency Power myself and really like it. This weekend I heard the Borla for the first time in person and that sounds a little deeper in my opinion. Both sound great though.

im looking for something that has alot of sound output but not a headache, i havent installed an exhaust before but im looking forward to installing whichever one i get. Just hoping that these are easy to install and have all the needed parts. im looking for pricerange of up to $700 or $800. I like the greddy's look and sound for the high tones, and the borla's lower tones. or should i go with a different system alltogether?

I don't think you'll be disapointed in Borla.

Is the Greddy system not worth it, my friend has it on his Evo10 and sounds great but thats a piston engine, so idk about 8's. I think he mainly bought it for the tips tho.

Borla sounds better IMO, but that is just an opinion.

We have 4 instock currently at the best price hands down.

I appreciate it, with the borla everything needed comes with it right out of the box or is anything else required for installation?

Yes comes with everything needed. I might suggest some new gaskets which we offer on our site.

I just installed Borla on my 8, everything came with it clamps etc. IMO the sound is awesome, deep growl not like those ricer butt pipes!

These two exhausts systems are very close in decipals.

Pick the exhaust for the sound.

I would choose Borla

Borla has a great sound when coupled with a stock cat but if you get a hi-flo or midpipe, it's loud. I currently have this setup and am thinking about going back to a stock cat despite the $1225 price tag.

My hi-flo just burned out and I am up for emissions. My 8 needs a lot of work at 109500 miles. I am looking at new exhausts and the MS and Borla exhaust are on my list among other things. Fluid Motorsports, you absolutely will be hearing from me before the end of this week.
