Any feedback on new Borla exhaust

[krislwilliams]

Borla has just released a cat-back for the 08 2.5i hatch and I was curious if anyone has it or knows anyone who has it. I am thinking about getting it, but at $700, I want to make sure it is going to be worth it.

Ouch, that sounds like a lot of cash for something that will maybe give you 5-10 hp.

Do you have any other suggestions? From what I can tell, aftermarket parts are very limited for my car, at least so far.

yes, go to the local muffler shop and have them build you an exhaust it might cost you like $200 tops. that with buying a muffler.
