Borla vs. Flows
My last exhaust thread hopefully... Most people will LOL that i am trying to decide between borla and flows but the thing is i like the flows tone but the deepness/loudness doesnt cut it. I love the muscle rumble along with the way loud WOT. If i upgraded from my flows to the borla catback will it have that same muscle rumble and a better/louder tone? My only other option is getting a complete flowmaster catback and switching my X pipe to an H.. I figure both will cost me about the same in the end..So which route would you choose?

RE: Borla vs. Flows
Borla's sound is ALOT different than flows. It's obvioulsy louder, and in my opinion, alot more distinct than alot of other sounds I have heard.
The sound is really clean and has a tone that stands out. I've heard a few flow's equipped stangs and while they do sound good, its a different sound.. they sound best at low rpms and at idle, while stingers sound pretty nice at idle, awfully bassy at low rpms, but they just scream race car at anything above 2500...
I wish I had a good camera to do another in car video winding out the gears to near redline.. and a drive by at WOT... o/r H and youre getting attention everywhere..
I've never thought twice about my exhaust, but im sure there are Flowmaster owners who say the same thing...

RE: Borla vs. Flows
I like Flows, everyone Mustang that's come into my friends shop has had Borla's put on it, they have a really clean, powerful sound, but I will stick with my Flows, where I live, I'm the different guy haha
