Default how reliable??

Getting ready to purchase these borla stingers from ebay for $520 shipped from "auto parts warehouse". This is the cheapest spot i found them. Anyone know how reliable they or or if you have bought stuff from them the quality. I just dont wanna waste my time if they're replicas in returning them or not getting the right product.

Geez thats a lot of money to spend on cat backs when you could save up $75 more and get a good set of comp cams and then wait and spend $300 on a mac or ford racing cat back system. I would get Borla if i had a Viper but i wouldnt put um on a mustang. Thats money spend better somewhere else. . . .

In my opinion Borla was made for dodges and Flowmaster was made for Chevy . . . but you know ppl will fight me to the grave on that one haha!

i know but my friend had them on his 00 stang and i loved how they sound. He let me drive the car as well as i stood outside while he drove it and really like the sound. They retail for $700+ dollars on their website.

I completely agree with the Borlas being for Dodges, Flowmasters for Chevys thing. Borla's are worth every cent. We like to call it "buying quality products" lol. Just kidding, I know a lot of the other catbacks out there are great but I'm sure most will agree that Borlas and Bassani are the tops. (Not to flaunt my exhaust or anything, just explaining why I went with borla over the rest.

i just got my borlas brand new from ninosport.com for 579 and free shipping. if you are afraid of them being knockoffs just save up a little more and get them new. plus shipping only took 2 days.
