Coming Soon: Borla Exhaust for out ST's!

I have been in contact with the R&D department of BORLA (They are less than 5 miles from my home) and it looks like they will be using my car to take measurements and do the test fitting of a new cat-back & Turbo-Back exhaust! I will get the final word tomorrow and dates they will have it. 5 Days after drop-off, a new exhaust will be born. I'll be sure to throw up some video clips of the new exhaust when and if they use my car.

Fingers crossed.

I'm pretty sure they're using my car for both. Yes, I will get the first one free.

Down pipe back? or Flex pipe back? Thats awesome. So is Borla doing this for FRPP's or themselfs? As FRPP's had varies Borla kits including a center exit for svt's. I happen to have one of their system's.
