the SLP effort looks like a "me too...oh wait" type of deal:

they use a 3 inch inlet, but a truck muffler, with dual outs.
it just LOOKs restrictive. (all their stuff is under YUKON)

$599.95

I like the Borla, but the $$ is not feeling the Obama-conomy. The over the Axle space must be small, because they use dual 2 inches out of the muffler.
$959

this is the only 3 inch I have found with a large enough muffler to be quiet:

you have read about the noise issues created by after market ones due to the AFM system right?

When your GMT900 kicks from 4 to 8 and vice versa, i'm reading some people are not happy w/the noises from after market stuff...

JUST SAYING! buy what you want, but I'm keeping mine stock...

eh, most of the posts I found on it said they could not tell. these guys said not to worry about it:

FWIW, i could see that being a problem on a "bullit" or straight thru glass pack, but a big body muffler should not do it, ???


and that's another reason to stay cheap. that way, you can peel it off & resell it if you aint' happy.

i just realized you were looking at 3 inch. these are only 2.5, but look to be a good deal. I am wanting to do this mod very soon.

when in fact kinda the opposite is true...spend more for a better quality system and the 4 cyl to 8 cyl change is almost unnoticeable... the main people complaining about it are those that bought "cheaper" systems

I have Corsa sport cat back but if you want a little more mellow you should look into the Corsa Touring

I have also heard of people just swapping out the mufflers and doing a resonator delete. stock piping is large enough so no real performance gain is made with a full cat back system
