Default Flowmaster or Borla

I'm unsertain on which exhaust to get. Flowmaster or Borla. On their sites I like the sound of Borla better, but I like the price of Flowmaster better. Any thoughts?

I'm in tha same boat as you and this is my two cents:

Flowmasters sound good, I've heard em in person but they do drone. I know you can get a set for around $250 installed.

Borla sound good as well, but have never heard em in person, only in clips. Unsure about the drone and they are more expensive.

Perhaps find someone that has them installed on their cars and listen to them in person.
Take a ride with them if possible.
You might find you really like (or really dislike) one or the other.

I wouldn't even waste my time thinking about flowmasters if I were you.

Borla is the only way to go if you want that deep rumble, the only exhaust that doesn't drone is Corsa. Corsa has no drone but doesn't have anything near the aggressive sound that Borla makes.

Make the right choice the first time if you are worried about money then don't even change your exhaust.

My brother had a 91 Pontiac Trans Am with Flowmaster pipes on it. It had an awsome sound. I haven't been around any Borla pipes though.
