Stingers
I plan to install the "stinger" type A/Bs on my car as a first mod. I need a little expert info to help me decide what topurchase. The ones from Borla, FRPP and Steeda all appear (from photos) to be the same or close to the same product. Are the FRPPs actually made by Borla or Steeda or someone else? Does Steeda actually make their own A/B or is it a remarketed (made by another company) item? Are these different named systems basically the same or are there differences in sound, quality, etc.? Any help is appreciated.

RE: Stingers
Borla makes the "Stingers" for the FRPP and Steeda. They all have the same sound and quality(T-304 Stainless steel) . The only difference is the stamping logo that they put on the exhaust. You're basically paying for the brand name if you buy Borla. I had to learn the hard way because I spent an extra $100 for Borla when I couldve gotten the FRPP Stingers at a much cheaper price[&:]. IMO go with the FRPP or the Steeda version. They cost a lot cheaper and you're still getting the same quality and sound from Borla. BTW thats a good plan to go with the Stingers... They sound awesome!!!

There is a small amount of drone in the 1800-2100 range, but to me its not bad and i am not in that range often.

For those who worry about drone... I am an old-school muscle car guy (original owner of 68 Roadrunner) and I actually like drone. I grew up with drone. It is a constant reminder that I am driving something other than a Camry.
