    [QUOTE=Monkeygrits;346307]I have Borla Stingers but I have a Magnaflow catted X. Borla Stingers are the best sounding exhaust for a 4v IMO. I've had 2 other Catback systems and this one is a keeper. Watch Amazon. I got mine off of there from an open box deal very cheap. Paid 445 with tax. Here's a video of mine. There's also an in car video on my channel as well.
    Well I think I'm going with this setup. Another member on here has the x for $300 and I pulled the trigger on it i guess lol. It is still on his car and I have to wait till he puts his longtubes on. Now i read online that some people have trouble with the borla catback bolting to aftermarket midpipes because borla narrows the tubes at the connection point. How did yours fit? Any leaks or problems? Did it throw a code or did you need a tune?

    Borla for sure. best quality and sound for sure. tough not to get drone on older cars, but i am sure they will provide the least. and like these guys are saying, if you can find something for a steal, take it. stainless steel is hard to screw up. i am sure that you can find new tips somewhere if you absolutely have to have them. save the money while you are young. start a retirement account with that 200 dollars. and if you sell it, whether you apens 800 or 400, you are not going to get any of that money back. basically throwing a week of work out the window.

    Ya trust me im as cheap as they come. The only reason im getting borlas and an x pipe is that i feel i need to treat myself. I constantly take crap at work from other people while being on my feet and moving heavy containers 10 hours a day. And i never mod my car and i feel exhaust is the most important to me because whether you are cruising or racing, you hear it. So im gonna actually get the best for once lol

    I'm with you on that one buddy. I worked 60+ hrs a week in healthcare, dealing with people whining about how they ran a 5K over the weekend and their feet hurt, or how they have a sore throat for an hour, or kids and adults coughing on me, sneezing on me, dealing with peoples shit and having to be so caring because they are "so sick". Then I had to deal with shit with my ex at home and she was a pile of garbage. So when we broke it off I did the same thing. I bought a Mustang and went out and spent over a grand on my Exhaust.. I bought a Magnaflow Tru-X catted x and a Magnaflow Competition Exhaust. I love it. Aside from Spintech, I think that Magnaflow is the best sounding exhaust on a 2v. Borla hands down, is the best on a 4v.. I was envious I didn't have a 4v because I wanted a Borla exhaust so bad. Doesn't sound anywhere near as good on the 2v's lol.. Just remember though, try to buy used when you can if you find a good part, because I too said I wouldn't do much to mine, and I'm always changing things up on my car. I regret spending the 1k on my exhaust sometimes because I could have used it for other stuff!

    That sucks I always hated that about places that are the temp-hire's. How long until you're hired on? Do they have a time frame set out for you?

    Are you a CPA? I'll tell you a job I think I'd enjoy is being an Auditor and traveling different places. My buddies wife does that. I worked in Healthcare as a Trainer for new clinics that we were opening. Was a good job until they cut my department lol. I got a chance to do a lot of traveling to different cities from the east coast to the mid west. You should put ads up to do peoples taxes in the mean time. People are always looking for private vendors that are good to goto!

    sure, if you want EVERYONE to hate you........ lol

    My accounting teacher in high school was an internal auditor for Mellon Bank and said that everyone hated them.... I haven't had to be audited at work (knock on wood) but i know people that have, and it's apparently not fun. The hardest thing for us is explaining to people why we did what we did - the auditors try really hard to understand, and sometimes they just can't comprehend it.

    keep working hard, and it'll be no problem. The CPA exam is easy - and no, i'm not being sarcastic

    Haha not gonna lie I dont like the idea of being an auditor. That was the worst class in college I became an accountant to work with numbers and we never used numbers in that class and it was awful
