Default Anyone near Waltham have a Borla exhaust I could listen to?

I want to get a new exhaust and with a Tip Borla seems to be an affordable option because they include a DP. But several people have told me that it will be LOUD and that's not what I want. I'm 37 and want to keep a low profile

Anyone able to meet me somewhere and take me for a quick ride to hear a Borla exhaust?

Other option is buing a Techtonic Tuning DP and Milltek but man is that an expensive option ...

Thanks

Default I have posted before and have found a few local Milltek for about $500 used. Never pulled the

trigger because I bought a house at nearly the same time.

Default APR Stealth is a good option as well. I had the APR and now have the Borla on my S4 (more)

The APR was nice, but almost too quiet for what I wanted. I'm wanted low key myself but something sporty sounding. I love the Borla personally. I don't have downpipes or anything though which I know makes a difference in the sound as well. Mine is not load, just a much more sporty sound to it and the fit is better than most of the other manufacturers as well. That was my experience anyway.

Default Borla is loud

you won't like it if you want quite. APR and Miltek are the quiet way to go. You might even look into doing something custom at Lou's if they have some quiet muffler options.

Default Too expensive and they rust away fast.

My APR exhaust was yellow within 4 months of purchase.
