Exhaust for LS1 Camaro

[yabadaba]

Hi guys, I've been lurking for a while but this will be my first post.

After about 10 years or so without a yank (previously owned a '72 318ci Charger and a '71 350ci Camaro) I'll hopefully be buying a 2001 Z28 Camaro in the next few week.

The car that I have my eyes on is coming over from Japan and from the pictures I've seen it definitely appears to be fitted with a plain single exhaust (didn't even know they did those)! Now there's no way I want that...just doesn't suit the car and I want a nice V8 rumble! So, before I even drive it away from the dealers I want a new system fitted.

I've read up a bit on some of the US forums and have listened to some soundclips (sad, I know!) and reckon' a Borla Catback system would probably be to my liking and help a tad with performance. Has anyone got any opinions on this combo (LS1 + Borla)? Seems a lot of people go for the Magnaflow or Flowmaster instead, both of which seem readily available over here.

Cheers

I've got a Custom Chrome system on my 2002 which everyone likes apart from the neighbours but if I was looking for a new one it would be the Borla.

I'd think USAutomotive would be your best bet for the Borla system over here.

I have a Borla adjustable system fitted to my LT1 Camaro. Fitted it last year and it is a very nicely made system. I have it on the second loudest setting and it sounds great. Loud enough to set off car alarms in car parks sometimes. Supplied by Keith at Eurovettes.
