Does sound nasty, but I, too, would like to hear a drive-by for full effect. Hopefully you can do another video this weekend.

Yeah, they're Borla S-type mufflers.

I have Borla S and also SS exhaust. They are not the same muffler. I am running stock exhaust other than cat back. The SS drone like crazy with my stock setup so I went back to the S. I loved the oval tips.

It's weird the drone issue these mufflers have, my last 14 GT500 with just a OFR X pipe and the SS exhaust the drone was bad. But with my new car having ARH headers I almost have no drone on the highway. I don't know if headers make a difference with drone

I've run the SS mufflers w/ stock mid pipe, MRT O/R H and now the headers w/ hi flow cats, the headers definitely give them a cleaner sound.

Can you have a muffler shop cut the SS Oval tips and weld back on the Borla S mufflers?

I had an off-road X before I did headers and my car got quieter at idle and cruising RPMs after I did the headers. It was whisper quiet at highway speeds with the longtubes.

Yeah the factory manifolds make them drone a lot more

The oval tips are just held on by a clamp, You can have them welded on a different muffler, Buts a lot of money for the SS exhaust system just to use the tips

Yeah the LTs are a must have when you do the SS axle back.

Yes, but it would be costly. The S have TWO pipes coming out the back instead of one. So, it would difficult to redesign the back of the muffler. The easier solution would be a 10-12 muffler with a single pipe out the back and then the SS tip welded to it.

For me, not worth the hassle. Maybe for someone else.

Does anyone know why they don’t make Corsa Extremes for 13-14 GT500?

Or are my google skills just trash?

Corsa is in Ohio, I really want to work with them on a dual mode exhaust/active exhaust like my Hellcat and the GT350s/'18+ Mustangs.
I know S197 guys would like the option.
