Borla dual exhaust exit options ?

I have the Borla dual exhaust kit (GM version) that exits straight out the rear of the truck. What I really want is the dual exit behind each wheel that comes out like the stock exhaust did. Does anybody know if I can purchase just the last piece of pipe to make it come out the sides? I have tried contacting Borla with no outcome so far. Thanks!

AFAIK, only Flowmaster has that type of option.

Wrong answer... http://www.borla.com/products/silverado_sierra_1500_catback_exhaust_stype_part__140545.html

 

They have both side exit exhaust on at least 3 different muffler systems. Now how to buy just the tail pipe section has been elusive. With that said, they all come with a million mile warranty, so they surely must have a way to get each part.

I meant only Flowmaster had multiple exit option in one single kit. I have tried before with Borla to get a piece out of a kit to no avail.

I'm sure even if I did find them Borla would charge half the price of the catback for two pieces of pipe. I really don't want to hack up a nice kit but looks like I'm gonna have to customize it how I want it

Take the Borla muffler off, get a single in, dual out Magnaflow 12388. Have a shop build two tailpipes out either side with 409. Add the stainless tips of you choice.

How much would that run you? I was checking a video of it on a ram truck and I like that sound. A low rumble. That was what I am looking for. Not imposing but still there.

At my shops we would charge you $550.00, the #12388, the labor, 2 1/4 inch 409 stainless tailpipes out either side, or out the back, all the hangers, etc. Stainless tips extra. I'm doing my new 2015 I got last week this Saturday, I'll snap some pics. I'm turning the tailpipes down in the rear corners of the truck, with the stainless tips barely exposed.

That's the look I'm going for... Dual pipes angled towards the corners. I have a 15 Denali, and the current location of my tailpipe is perfect....

I would love the pics and that would be a reasonable price for getting something I want. The Borla is too expense. I was looking for oval tips pointing out back but angled to the corner could also look cool.

 

Let me know how it goes for you

What do you do about the V4 drone? Do you leave the flapper valve?

Drone would not be the word I would use with the 24-inch Magnaflow system with two tailpipes, rather than on 3-inch tailpipe. There is a change in tone, yes, but drone refers to resonation, and there is none. On my personal rig, I turn off the AFM, so it's not an issue. However, I ran my 2013 Avalanche for 2 years with the same exhaust, (no flapper came on that year) with AFM on, and the change in tone was not an issue. I personally believe the AFM is not worth the 1, or 1.5 MPG gained when you look at the long term damage.

 

I will be removing the flapper on my 2015. I'll give you some feedback when I'm done Saturday as I will leave the AFM on for my trip home just to collect some data. I'll then turn it off using my Diablo i2.

I'm not "angling them to the corners', I'm bringing the tailpipes back high, then turning them down in the corners, roughly 60 degrees. Lots of oval tip choices out there.

Buy 2 304 mandrel bends 45s or 30s and have someone tig weld them on and swap over you tips.I built the exhaust for my 32 ford including the Corsa black box extreme mufflers for under 300 bucks. All 304 stainless and all mandrel bends. The exhaust on my 5.3L SCSB was about 350 with 3" 304 tubing, 304 mandrel bends, and a Corsa black box extreme muffler. That was also with a fabbed 3" to 4.5" radius cut tip. The exhaust on my LSX Swapped S-10 was about 400 with 3" 304 tubing, 304 bends, and a Magnaflow.

That would look just priceless. A cut and weld system on a $50k plus truck. :nonod:
