I drove the car only a short distance from the shop to my house.
The sound was not at all intrusive, but that was not much of a test.
I'll provide a more detailed report tomorrow, after I've driven the
car at low and at high speeds.
I'll also provide more pictures.

I had a Borla exhaust on my NSX and absolutely loved it. I look forward to your more detailed write up and pictures.

Thanks for sharing your experiences with the rest of us.

Sound clip

I found someone to help with the sound clips, so that should happen this weekend.

In the meanwhile, I got a chance to put a bunch of miles on the car and listen to the sound.
If you ever had a Borla, you know they produce the sweetest sounds. It's not too loud. At highway speeds you can hear your stereo or have a conversation without raising your voice.

Hope this info will tide you over until you can hear the sound clips.
Mr. B

Glad to see you finally got the Borla you've been waiting for. Does it sound similar to the clips of the prototype on my car.

It's hard to tell.
Numbers 3 & 4 sound closest to mine,
altho I think mine has a bit more base in the sound.
Why didn't you keep the prototype???
