16V exhaust needed



There are different Borla's that have different sound.  Ben's is quiet even
though you can see it straight though.  It is slightly louder than stock but
a very nice mellow sound.  It cost $225 from TT.  I have a MagnaFlow which
is slightly louder.  MagnaFlow has several different types as well. The
FlowMaster was the loudest but I never got pulled over with it even though I
layed on it all the time.
