Default MNE, Akrascal or anyone else with the Borla TT exhaust ?'s for you

Hey guys, it looks like finding a dual exhaust for the 180TT is going to take a long time. I don't like to wait. So in the meantime I am going to think about getting the single exhaust Borla like you gentlemen have. Would it be to much to ask for some up close digital pics of a head on shot showing chrome and how it fills the hole better, a side view of the rear showing how much more(or less) it sticks out from the bumper?
Also is there any chance one of you feels like recording the exhaust note idle and while giving it gas in a high quality wav or mp3 for me?(and I am sure others on the forum would enjoy this also!)

Many thanks in advance!

Default I believe MNE had a picture posted some time ago?

However, I will try to do so, later this week... as to recording... geez, maybe my daughter who runs a web design firm can help me with this.... BUT she is gonna think I am nuts.... 8•) Actually her response was identical to that of my wife: "you are what?" "what is wrong with the original muffler?"

Default No Borla pictures... (more)

See my Borla Installation post above. The tip is 4" in diameter (1/2' wider then stock) Beautifully chromed tip with an inner shell. It fits nicely in the cut-out but I would have liked it a bit higher in the cut-out. There is a even 1" space around the tip and the cut-out. I installed it in my companies garage during lunch time. At 11:20 the suit came off the jeans went on and at 12:30 mt TTQ was back out on the parking lot and I was back in my office attire.

Borla is 100% stainless steel... the tip is polished S.S. Even muffler uses spun S.S. for muffling

I actually would need to bend my hanger up a tad, it could be positioned up, but I'm happy with it.

Default No... I thought so too. Bending it down makes the rear rubber donut pull it up higher... more

Trust me on this. If you bend it up it will hang lower. BTDT.
