that's what i have...i installed the x-pipe where the resonator used to be,and got rid of the famous borla restrictions inside the front pipes,apparently put there to get rid of the resonance...the car feel more nervous,and still no resonance..i dont know about the borla mufflers;there might be some other brand with less restriction;maybe somebody knows about that...so far ,that set-up is still too quiet to my liking !!

BJ - It sounded good to me, but maybe I just prefer a quieter tone. Quiet when cruising around so as not to attract the nosies and then a roar when you nail it would be my ideal.

Lgaff just put a Magnaflow X pipe on his Borla. He liked it and looks like he picked up about 2mph in trap speed. Some resonance but not too bad.

If your exhaust is too quiet, take a drive to Marc Haibecks shop in Chicago and listen to my BBB/Triflow system. I'm having it replaced with a Corsa system.

I'll sell it to you for $500. It comes with RT bullet cats, a Stainless Works X-pipe and was TIG welded by a guy who build race cars. The system has less than 3K miles on and comes off a car that only has 10K miles.

If your interested, let me know.
