Default borla cat back

in the near future i'll be buying the borla stingers, but i saw the cat back system for only 150 more, is it worth it? or is it pretty much the same as the stock pipes

Yes, for sure!! The axle backs alone are 3 times that!

I think you mis-understood him :-) It wasn't for $150, it's $150 more than the stingers.

Most poeple would say don't bother as the stock exhaust is pretty free flowing anyways. I would agree.

I would get it. I have an 06 gt manual with the borla cat back and I love the set up. Sounds great. I also have the AEM brute Force CAI. Get the the borla cat back.

Yes its going to sound good, you changed 3 things: the airflow, the mufflers and the other pipes......you will notice a huge difference just buy putting the mufflers and the CAI on there. I am not saying the over axle pipes being changed wont effect the sound but you can get the FRPP stingers for a shade over 400 and the borla catback is 650ish....so you can save 250 by only getting the axlebacks and still get a great new sound without the hassle and money require to change the over axle pipes....the factory ones are very decent.
