Default Borla S-Type Axleback Exhuast Sound Clip

Here’s a cold start and and some revs of the Borla axleback exhaust for a 2013 GS 350, for anyone wondering. I could barely find any clips myself before purchasing. I love this system, you get a really nice tone and loud sound on the outside when you floor it without dealing with any annoying drone. Perfect balance for me, changes the character of the car.

And yes, I redlined right after a cold start lol I was excited. Later I’ll try to post a clip comparing the in car, windows up sound right before and after the Borla system was installed.

Wow thats pretty impressive! Can it still be quite when just cruising around? Any chance you could do a recording from inside the car?

I don’t have any clips recorded yet of normal driving inside the car but this YouTube video has footage of it starting at the 3:00 mark. Virtually no drone, best of both worlds for most people.

Kingmatt, is the rest of the exhaust stock? No midpipe, just the axleback?

$684 on AutoHance. You should see a promo code with them on Google when you type “Borla GS350 exhaust”. No taxes and the shipping was free

I have had this exhaust well over a year and it’s as described. When cruising on the highway no drone at all. If your driving inclines on mountain roads you will hear some low tone that my be a little annoying but that’s the only thing I can think of that’s remotely negative and that’s not really too bad. The WOT on this exhaust simply sings and is one great sounding systems for our cars

Yep, it’s the perfect balance. Made the car so much more exciting to drive. I’ve been driving “spirited” way more than before to hear that great exhaust note

I couldn't really hear a difference in the video of the in cabin part. Would you say it is more noticeable inside the cabin with the exhaust? I may pull the trigger.

How does the S-type compare to the Borla ProXs muffler? Are they a straight through design?
