Thanks for the picts. It looks like what I was expecting from Borla. Too many slip fit pieces, and as you said, the fit is not the greatest. Before the install, did you happen to look through the resonator? Do you know if both sides merge or are they separate? Again, thanks for sharing.

lol too far.. if you were in socal we could have meet up and u could hear it...
honestly i dont think sound is that much different from PTS..
im not married so usually its only me and my gf or other friend in the car... so i can deal with the sound.. its not that bad for me 
no problem 
i did take a look at it but as im not an expert... i wouldnt say anything about the components of the resonator.. sorry

I've had the Borla axle back on my car for the past year and was the one that posted the original sound clips on you tube vs. Joe Z. At that time the exhaust was still new and since then has gotten even deeper tone. Certainly more aggressive sounding than stock but but much quieter than the Joe Z full cat back. The fit was perfect and VERY easy to install. I like that the mufflers have duel outlets that also line up perfectly with the stock quad diffusers. There is a slight drone at @ 70 mph in eight gear but goes away by around 74-75 mph. I have been totally satisfied with exhaust and can recommend it to anyone looking for a more aggressive sound. At the time when I purchased the Borla factory rep indicated an @ 12 HP increase over stock. Also installed a Joe Z intake with Tom's filter and have definitely noticed an increase in overall performance. Hope this helps.

I put on a borla axle back and love it. It mostly gained low rpm sound here is a video of mine. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bp6B1...=youtube_gdata

I've got over 500 on it now and it sounds Bad A now! It has gotten louder and loving it. Hoping the AFE filter i just ordered gives it some more.
