Default Borla Catback vs. Borla Agressive Catback

Should have my Bronco up for sale by next week. So hopefully a car isn't too far off. And of course, already looking at after market stuff, what else do I have to do at work right ? lol.

Borla exhaust, I love the vids I've seen of stingers. But this car will be a DD so it cant be obnoxious.

Here is a video of a sound I love, very deep and strong sounding. But not super loud. Also not very poppy/raspy.

So, here are the two Borla kits I see,

How much of a sound difference we looking at ? I know the aggressive is cheaper.

Lookin for input of which one is generally preferred over the other. Or if you think there is better. One rule. NO flowmaster. garbage.

The person in this video is boosted, so it's hard to tell.

Yea I know, thats the only thing making it hard to tell.

I think for now at least I'll be leaving the cats on.

Video sounds like a Stinger *aggressive catback* with a catted midpipe or stock midpipe....*probably aftermarket catted if it's a boosted car*

I know my car has quite a bit of rasp, but it's only at certain rpms, not to mention I'm running an H without cats which adds to it.

I've got a few videos if you're interested in hearing them.

I have the Borla stinger catback exhaust on my white gt (S197), and I don't think it is too loud to be a daily driver if it needed to be. After I put them on the car, it sounded so much better than the stock exhaust. It was night and day.

I now have the '03 cobra I have considered upgrading the exhaust on. I have heard the SLP's on another cobra, and they sounded darn good....

I'm interested in seeing those vids.

I've narrowed it down to the aggressive Borla, or the aggressive Magnaflow magnapack.

Opinions on the magnaflow. We had a magnaflow setup on a previous stang and it was really nice. It was a 98 GT Loved that sound.
