Default Performance exhaust questions (Borla vs. Scorpion)

A couple questions regarding performance exhaust (since I have decided to definitely do it):

1. Any opinion of the Scorpion Cat back exhaust(like the one found at http://www.lltek.com/lltek/ttq-cb.htm or this one http://www.advancedmotorsport.com/audi_tt/tt_exhaust.htm ) or how it rates vs. the Borla Exhaust(sound, hp, etc..)?

2. Any suggestions for retailers and/or installers in The San Francisco bay area (preferrably near San Jose)?

Thanks,


RusTTy

I don't know anything about the Scorpion, but I have heard of them. From what I could tell from just reading the link:

1. Scorpion has 4 exhaust ports, but I think only 2 are real since it only mentions 1 muffler.
2. Scorpion is twice the price!
3. Need to see a picture of the Scorpion before I know if 1 is true or not.

Scorpion is good quality, same dia (in mm), little louder, twice the $ and no spare parts in-country

Default You might have your exhausts confused Larry...(more)

The scorpion exhaust system is sold by TAP and is just a single tip exhaust just like the Borla. You can see a picture of the scorpion here:

You are right that it is 2X the price at $895<ul><li><a href="http://www.tap1.com/Modifications_by_Model/TT/ttscorpion2wd.JPG">Tap scorpion exhaust and pipes picture</a></li></ul>

Yeah, you're right, now I am wondering what the hell the quad exhaust is. I think it looks cool, but wanted some feedback.

Thanks,
