Scrap the long tubes, go back to the stock manifold, get cat delete pipes and keep the Borla muffler. That should quiet it down enough and still keep it pretty aggressive. Going back to the stock muffler is never a good idea.
+1, yep. and if you can't find cat deletes, just put the cats back on.Scrap the long tubes, go back to the stock manifold, get cat delete pipes and keep the Borla muffler. That should quiet it down enough and still keep it pretty aggressive. Going back to the stock muffler is never a good idea.
Stillens also makes cat delete pipes.+1, yep. and if you can't find cat deletes, just put the cats back on.
Agreed on stock muffler is not good idea. My understanding is getting rid of the cats is what adds a lot of volume to the sound, so I'd guess stock manifolds without cats would also be quite loud? (I also think that headers are kind of cool...)Scrap the long tubes, go back to the stock manifold, get cat delete pipes and keep the Borla muffler.

Yes, stock manifolds without cats can be quite loud. If I were you, I'd try that combo along with the Borla muffler you already have. If that isn't loud enough, then you could always sell the muffler and add an X or H pipe.Agreed on stock muffler is not good idea.

BAHAHAHA! I confess, I had header lust after just seeing (not hearing) Sinovac's. Then, when he pulled out of Cars and Coffee last Saturday, I had to change my shorts after a very quick standing at attention.What boost level are you running? If you drive fairly aggressively, I would not runs cats with anything beyond the common pulley/tune. If you are not into the boost often and long, you can run cats with anything.
If you get rid of your headers, sell them to Xcentric because his car sounds like a Corolla.
