Message:
Installed SS Borla cat-back exhaust today with minimal bloodshed. Did it in 2.5 hrs. with no lift but had air tools. Biggest prob was crimp line on cat pipe from factory U-bolt. Took an angle grinder to it and used air chisel to curl up corners of overlapping pipe that was removed. Jacked up pass side of truck with floor jack and removed the old cat back system as a unit. New system went on in 30 minutes, piece of cake. It has the same hanger style as stock utilizing the rubber grommets & everything lined up perfectly, excellent craftsmanship on this system. Fired her up and was impressed with the deep throaty rumble and immediately cracked open a cold one to celebrate, LOL.

hey... as soon as I heard Borla made headers for our trucks, and I already knew that I wanted Borla tips... I decided that my whole exhaust was going to be Borla... how's it sound ?? My bro has it on his tweaked out 96 Z28 and the sound is enough to make you drool on yourself.... anyway, what kind of muff's did you use ?

Hey jonathan,

Got it from Summit, pt# BOR-14900F, cost $380. You can see Borla's price at their site, Summit's price was the cheapest I could find. I just shortened stainless steel with the SS, LOL. The whole setup comes as a kit from Borla from the cat-back including the muffler all T-304 stainless. Sounds sweet as hell, looks excellent on the truck, nice looking intercooler tip seamlessly welded onto the system.

I'll take some pics and send them to you.

My bro got the Borla/Mopar Performance dual setup for his Liberty and when I saw the quality, sound, and ease of installation I knew that it was the setup for me.

I installed gibson stainless cat back and with the borla tips it was easy install and sounds great at idle it sounds muscle car-like. Would've gone with borla but they don't have split rear systems.
