yup. borla makes the ford racing exhaust. They are exactly the same, with the exception that the borla exhaust says borla and the ford racing says ford racing. Also, the ford racing sells for cheaper.

100% borla made muffler, I have two sittting here in my shop waiting for me to get the time to install them and the quality is top notch! That only is with the FRP mufflers though, not the exhaust pipes or anything else Im not sure who they are made by. Just know that FRP isnt Ford. They are a aftermarket company so you dont get a warranty unless its a powertrain item like engine or tranny.

I am very satisfied with my Borla purchase. Get lots of compliments. I got better pricing from Summit Racing than fromFord Racing or Borla.

Couldnt tell ya how mine sounds until they'reinstalled, but a friend of mine has dual FRP and I love em. Classic borla sound really, pretty quiet at idle for duals but they have that deep rumble at high idle, well as deep as a six can get Isuppose

the only ford racing mufflers that are not borla, are the ones that are in the dual exhaust kit for the v6, as well as the ones on the shelby gt/gt-h
