Default fitted my borla replica

hey guys

it arrived just now, 22days after being posted in the us,

it cost £100 and £50 shipping with no customs/import taxes

will try and fit this dinner

here are the pics:











and now fitted

wow wow wow

that makes a tad of a difference,

took about and 1hr and half to fit, due to a rusted cat bolt lol

sounds amazing, quite louder than the standard manifold, then i do have a hollowed 2nd cat and stright through centre pipe with ninja back box

well worth the £100

Looks good.
Why is it a Borla replica, rather than just a stainless steel header?
Are Borla some kind of different style?
Sorry for the questions, but the only time I ever heard of Borla was on The Fast and The Furious.
Also, do you have alink. Price seems good.

Ayi a group buy would have been ace on these.

borla developed the original style of un-equal length headers for the n/a 2.5 rs in the us, this gives it the turbo sound, they cost around £350 over here, the in the us the copies sprang up, and the consensus was they were better quality, but cheaper as they just copied rather than developed the header,

if you listen/watch the video it makes a drematic difference to the sound, and may be a few more bhp, but lets face it, it'll never be a rocket

That explains why I couldn't get my head round how it would fit to the up-pipe. It all looked a bit ****-about-face to me.......
