i have three questions

1. Which one is quieter?

2. Which one gives a more deep low V8 sound?

3. I've heard that the Borla is kind of tricky to get centered in the stock bumpers rear openings, while L-tuned is perfect.

Is the NEW Borlas the same way as the old ones?

1. to me, borlas is just a tad more pitch

2.both give deep v8 rumble

3.from what i know, both are about the same

4.the only diff between the new and old borla is the tip shape-old: more rectangular oval

new: more round oval

Z,

are you referring to l-tune v. borla? if so, borla has a slightly bigger tip. IMHO, borla is really nice.
