Thats how I run mine, I like it loud. I guess it would be nice to get it to go through the muffler and stay that loud.

I have Pacesetter coated LT's, Pacesetter ORY and Borla cat-back with a DMH cutout in place of the "adjustable plate" system. I can either direct it all through the muffler or let it go straight out the back. No sound clips as of yet....but I'd like to get some.

I've said it once and I'll say it again...I like the sound of a Borla cat-back on a car with stock manifolds or shorty/Mid-length headers + a catalytic converter...Longtubes just take away the deeper tone it used to have...And without cats, talk about rasp city.

Unless you want to buy the Borla system to actually run it (or most of it) through the muffler and like the tips, I see no point in paying $600+ to just run it wide-open...A cheap $35.00 Flowtech cutout does the same exact thing...I just think of it as a little deeper version of a wide-open Borla, LOL. And you can always cap it when you want to run your exhaust through the muffler you have...
Buy what you like though folks,
Mike

I don't think that is really "hating." Rather, just someone who doesn't like the sound of a Borla system. I personally think that LT1 posted above sounds horrible too...

To each his own, as the 'sound' issue is all relative and opinionated anyway.
