Default Borla people: Can you post your rear pics? also..

does the exhaust give any droning? I had a Borla on my s4 for less than a week because it was too loud for me. Espcially on the highway where around 3k rpm the car droned TOO much.

oh, and hows the fit and finish of the exhaust? the tips look similar to APR, whats the diff? angle cut? stick out past the valence the same? TIA

just in: does the borla exhibit the same center hanger problem the Milltek has?

Default No, I don't have any droning from my Borla

I have had it almost 2 years now. The sound gets better and better.

Default I'll post a pic tonight...100% happy w/ my Borla system

The sound of the system is excellent and understated. In fact, if anything it's on the quiet side. Quality, fit, finish were very good. I had no issues with installation. With some minor hanger adjustments, everything went together well and centering of the tips is perfect.

I have a 180TT with the dual outlet system.

Default It looks like that because the tips are oval. Plus, unlike the stock pipes, the Borla has no kinks

in the pipe, so the whole assembly is a bit lower than stock. Plus, it weighs half of what the stock exhaust does so I know it's not pulling harder on the rubber hangers.

Do you have a FWD or Quatro? I have read a number of posts about there being no dual exhausts for the 180 FWD. I presume you had a single exhaust and had to get a dual exhaust vailance. Did you need any special pipes to connect up the exhaust?
