Default Borla Dual Exhuast??

So, I am trying to find a good dual exhaust kit for my 6. After looking at Borla's site I see they offer a dual system for the V6 that is supposed to crank an extra 18hp. Does anyone out there have this kit??? They advertise it being $1200 and there is no way I want to drop that type of money if it doesn't meet expectations.??? please

not to steer you away from the borla, but i have a video of my magnaflows, if you want to hear them...the vid is about 6 mins.... i think they are rated for a 12 to 15 hp gain but as will alot of this stuff i usually knock 2-3 hp from the numbers cause they are gonna tell you anything to sell you something..... i used a y pipe and while my info in the video may be a little off, by some, this is what i was told by three reliable sources.... my whole kit with install was less than 1000....

hope this helps aid you in your decision......

Watched the vid, not too bad at all. Ok, so I now have thrown Magna into the running of exhaust system. But judging from a comment on the youtube vid someone made comment towards the idea that Borla was the loudest. I think that is what I am looking for...I want people to know when I'm coming lol.

Have you considered the frpp duels? Also take a look at the exhaust sticky thread (in the drivetrain performance section). Borla makes good products, but I can't imagine spending that kinda money on exhaust.

Well the price for the frpp duals is a lot more resonable...but, it's a Ford product so I'm curious as to if their setup is just the same as a stock GT?? More than likely, plus they don't say anything about power gain or anything. But thank you for the input....$1200 is a lot though.

You can buy the Borla Stinger mufflers for $400 bucks from buyfordracing.comthen you shouldgeta mid pipe and over-axel pipes of your choice. I got the take-off's from the GT's and will get the Stingers soon.

GT uses an H-Pipe and FRPP uses X-pipe. They also have different mufflers(and probally some other differences). This topic has been covered alot so do a couple of searches and you should find all the info you need. Good luck with your choice. Also the gains on exhaust will be the about the same (maybe 1 or 2 hp difference).
