Anyone have the Borla cat-back exhaust?

Thanks for the replies, guys. I was asking because summitracing.com has the cat-back Borla for the WRX for $399 which seems like a great deal.

That is a great deal for a cat-back with a lifetime warranty. I had the Borla cat-back on my car for about 6 months. I changed it out to a 3" complete turboback when I put in my VF30, injectors, etc.

I was very happy with the Borla and it's sound. Be warned, it is a little loud and droned in my wagon on the freeway.

Borla just came out with a "hush" system. Same power but less noise. Check with the vendors for availability....

Bryan, can you tell me which vendor carries the new hush system? I can't seem to find it. Sounds very interesting, thanks.

I have the Borla on my 2002 WRX, and I absolutely love it. It has an awesome rumble to it and it gives good hp gains.
Thanks.
