Borla Stinger vs SLP Loudmouth

[The Good]

When looking at thew pics on their respective sites they resemble one another very much. However the SLP's are about $500 while the Borla's are about $800 at the site. I know where to find the Borla's cheaper but why such a price difference in the first place. Also any comments on sound and performance are appreciated.

I'm not sure why a price difference.....borla has always been more $$$ tho. I have the SLP...they sound pretty close, but the SLP is louder. I think the performance gains are about the same. As far as I've heard they are pretty much the same system, but I haven't actually sat down and compared the 2 systems.

As far as sound , they both are the best out there in my opinion. Performance wise , everything I've read shows that there about even. I have the slp loudmouth cb , and I love it. Radio hasn't been on in weeks. Immediately noticable performance difference. My only guess as to why borla is so much more costly would be that borla = name brand so price is higher , but it's also a quality piece. I believe slp loudmouths for stangs are a bit of a newer product , but their quality is great also. Or maybe I'm just rambling on now.......

I think that both are excellent set ups. SLP is somewhat louder I believe, when I bought this car I just sold an extremely loud one so I didnt want that again so I got borla, but if I wanted something loud i would do an SLP set up.

to answer your question your paying for the name, Borla offers 4" tips but the SLP's look better IMO anyway...install is a piece of cake on both systems but the SLP is modular meaning you can interchange resonators/mufflers if you want with their clamp style connections...Slp is a bit louder but I'll tell you its a "make you grin as your foot goes down to the floor and you love every minute of it loud" put the difference into something else get the SLP set-up...just remember to stay from going insane make sure your mid-pipe is catted so I've read never heard the insane call the cops go deaf set-up with the O/R X as some people have mentioned....

Thanx for the posts. My dad and are torn on which to get but I think he's leaning towards the SLP because the sales rep said they dont crackle when you let off completly while the Borla's do. They are both the best T-304 stainless. Also i'm a newb and have no idea what O/R X means or IMO.

The SLP's, Borla's, and Magnapacks all have identical muffler or resonator construction. I got the Borla's at the time because no body had them. Listening to them all in person, I think the Magnapacks sound the best out of them all (as they are all similar type of sound). I paid $650 for the borla, where as I could have gotten the magnaflow c/b AND o/r X to my door for $700. If I had to do all over I would have just done the maggies, best bang for the buck, like others said, the stingers though they sound great are too expensive IMO compared to the competition.

I have SLP C/B and they crackle......

But they sound Damn Good! :beer:

If your interested in the SLP, try Ray at MyFordPerformance.com. My price shipped was less than $430! You have to call him to get the better price. :beer:

I have the SLP and love it. O/R X means off-road x-pipe and IMO means in my opinion.

if your getting straight through cat-back, probably wanna stay away from off-road H/X, and SLP does pop a bit when you let off the gas
