Paired with an injen short ram intake, what would you guys choose..borla or tanabe? Right now I'm pretty much torn between the two brands. The videos on you tube are honestly not helping much. There is one video which I will post below that I love. That sound is pretty much exactly what I am going for. Some folks have suggested borla but after seeing this video I'm really considering tanabe. So what do u guys think will go well with my intake to help me achieve this sound? I'm also reading here and there about y-tubes so I'm pretty sure I would get one installed at the same time with whatever brand I decide to go with. Any takes?

The two are really similar, but all are waayy too aggresive for my tastes... the Borla is the most aggresive sounding exhaust I've heard without gettign into the raspy ricey sound

I still cant decide on exhaust, I guess not having money makes it easier to be in limbo at this point....

... EBAY. $175 shipped+ some adjustments = $300 End of story. Perhaps resonator delete from the setup and you'll have yourself a growling near Borla like but original setup.
