Polished Borla-Borla exhaust
Polished Borla-Borla exhaust - well over 50hrs. polishing work, flanges around cutout have been powder coated black, all 304 SS polished clamps, includes new hangers/brackets/SS hardware, includes several extra 304SS clamps from Borla. The DMH cut out in the pictures is not included w/ the Borla exhaust but is also available for sale on page 7. This listing is also in my other FS thread, but I figured it would get more views by itself.
Why the Borla-Borla? I didn't like the sound created by using long tubes, no cats and the Borla cat-back. It made a raspy noise at a certain cruising RPMs. Mufflex installed the Borla XR-1 muffler and it totally eliminated the raspy sound. The XR-1 is a straight through design. Denny @ Mufflex has done testing and they do not reduce power at all. The pictures below are current and just before being wrapped and boxed. Ready to ship. HEAVY BOX!
If you are looking for a $350 used Borla, this isn't it. If you were planning on buying new anyway, this is much better than it ever was when new. I only know one other person to do this kind of polish work on a Borla exhaust. This is not a low quality polish job, it was done right. The cost to replace just the parts (not including DMH) - Borla 40085 - $130, Borla 14464 - $880, total over $1000. plus shipping.
$860 shipped w/o DMH, $980 shipped w/ DMH e-cutout
