What do you think? Both sounds pretty deep and both are just about the volume level I'm looking for... any opinions? Expierences? =)

The Borla has more of HO gain which sounds just a bit better. The Borla costs a little more but it's cheaper on shipping and it comes with a TRD drop in air filter. So if you're not chaging the intake you're good.


Definetely go with a Borla

^^ x2 on that. Megan's QC is somewhat questionable. It's a hit or miss with them. I would go with the borla but the megan is a catback exhaust.

i have the Borla and love it. It sounds deep and when you get on it doesn't sound like a spissed off weedeater. The filter it comes with is pretty nice also, it's basically the same as the K&N drop in filter. You can probably clean it with the K&N filter cleaner. When mine got dirty I just put the K&N back that i had on my first tC since i was out of the cleaner.


beware of the mad sciontist !

ask me your car audio and electronics questions!!

Hey i like it. I think i'm gonna go the same way with the Borla. I was thinking of getting the Tsudo N1 catback, but now i might change my mind. What do you guys recommend, axle back or the Tsudo N1 catback?

OP: Borla would be my choice between the two.

Thats the one thing I wish my Magnaflow had. I love the sound from the Magnaflow, but that angled tip looks pretty sick.

I have a Borla axle back and love it. It has a nice, low, deep sound. Not annoying, but very noticeable when I get on it. My neighbor has a SRT-4 and loves my exhaust.
