Default Axle back score!

I have been keeping my eye out for a deal. Finally found one from a FRPP dealer on eBay. Installed them yesterday they sound like a 5.0 should with no drone!
Easy install look and sound great!

Those are GT500 mufflers, I think. I paid $260 for a set a couple years back. They can be found retail for about $300, sorry to disappoint. They are a great sounding muffler though and a very worthwhile upgrade over stock.

You better google that part #. These are different mufflers than the $300 version. Very different sound.

Cool, budget Borlas then, I retract my statement. Well done.

Yes, they are different. I thought about getting the FRPP's. I just couldn't justify the cost. So, I went with the GT500's. I was also afraid the car would be too loud with my off road X.

I'm definitely glad I went with GT500s now I am supercharged. I just turned the volume up to 11 and anything louder than the GTs would be too much. The FRPPs are like Borla Touring so, they are as quiet as aftermarket typically gets.

Those are different mufflers. Different part #. Google the part # before you buy and you will see the difference.
