Im very impressed with the sound, very low but deep when you get on it.
I think the tips could have been a little bigger but whatever it looks clean.

it feels like i got a lot of HP gain from 0-60.

awesome man. i bought borla resonator/mufflers/tips and did custom 2.5" piping on the acura, love the way it turned out. planned to do it to the SC400 too.

what mufflers/tips did you use? piping size?

you are right, build quality of the borlas are awesome, tone is real deep even on my v6 acura, and they are def high flowing.

hey, im new to the SC scene. But where did you get your exhaust from and how much was it? Bolt on? or weld?? Sorry for the noob questions.

I am planning on new exhaust, but are there any for the sc400 that are direct bolt on? Or are they all welds. On another note, are there differences between weld and bolt on, as in performance? sound, quality?

My Borla came with larger diameter tips welded on. Was around 400$ and was bolt on! LOVE the sound (could be bias but i like it better than Blitz!) The smaller muffler is also concealed better.

i just got a 400 as well and i have had a hard time finding exhaust. i have a 2003 eclipse as my show car and i have heard a few borla systems on that car and they sound great but i was wondering where you found yours or if it is custom made
