Borla Dual Exhaust

mcali17 · June 3, 2003

Well, last night, while I was at my softball game, my brother put my exhaust on my truck at our family's shop. It looks awsome, and I will try and post some pics as soon as I can.

He said once he dropped the cross link and part of the rear end to get the old exahust out in one piece, it only took him about 45 min to install the new one. So total remvoal and install time was about 90 min.

Fit and finish is excellent. It sounds louder, both inside and out. But if you had never driven it before, you would never know the difference while inside, it is a pretty subtle difference inside and the tone outside is mellow. Not real high like an import, but not real low and throaty. Somewhere right in the middle.

The truck seems to have a better throttle response, I want to see if anything happens with fuel economy, but I am planning on having my PCM upgrades done next week, so I may never know the full affect of just the exahust.

Now I have to decide on an intake. More air out needs more air in.

Sounds cool, you must be stoked. How much dough?

$762 delivered. I look at is as an investment over the life of the truck. Considering I have 60 month financing that is only $12.70 a month. At least that is how I got it by my wife.

$762 delivered sounds like a great price. Who did you order the exhaust system from?

I'd love to install duals on my 2003 Trailblazer.

Performance International

Here is their web address. It took about 2 weeks to get it, I think Borla is a little backed up with this, but both times I called they were right on top of my order. Once they hadn't gotten it from Borla yet and by my second call it had already shipped, and they gave me the tracking number over the phone. I am going to try and take some pictures this weekend.
