Borla Touring Vs. GM Performance

[email protected] · March 21, 2020

Should I go with the Borla Touring or GM Performance on my 2020 6.2 AT4? What are your thoughts on each one?

Essentially the same thing.... I'd go with Borla personally. And S-type over Touring... Perfect amount of low tones.

Maybe someone can correct me but i think the Borla is a little louder then the GM Perf. Muffler? Here is my uncles truck with the GM PERF Exhaust and Intake.

I put the Borla touring on and am very happy with it. I wanted something just a little louder than the factory but not noticeable when cruising. I choose it over the GMPP mainly because of price.

They are very similar. I have the GM version and Im happy with it. Can’t go wrong with either if you are looking for a more mild sound upgrade.

Very happy with the GM performance exhaust on my 6.2. loud deep cold start, great V8 growl when I step on it, but not loud at cruise. Little rumble while towing, but not bad at all.

borla makes the gm performance exhaust, i was thinking that it is a re stamped s type but it might be the touring ( it was a few months back when i was looking into the exhaust). if you go with the s type it is the same as the atak. the difference is the secondary muffler on the s type behinde the primary and polyphonic harmonizer behindthe muffler on the atak.

Have the Borla Touring . Rotfab Intake. 5.3. Mainly went with the Borla because of the price. Love the sound. Still getting 20 mpg highway. Cruse set at 76mph.

I went with the Corsa Dual Sport Exhaust today. Pulled the plug on it. I wanted the sound to be a bit louder than GM's performance exhaust. I called Borla today on their S-type but they don't have it for a Crew Cab standard bed. I had Gibson on my last truck and loved that deep tone it had, but they also don't offer it for my truck. So I went with Corsa, and after research I think I will be happy.(Fingers Crossed)

Had a 10% COUPON code so I got the exhaust for $1300 and my S & B CAI is still on back order, supposed to be here August 15th. So $1650 in all for both.

My buddy has always put Corsa on all his vehicles, and I have enjoyed the sound from them.

Can only comment on the GM Performance Exhaust. I would recommend it if looking for a better sound over stock. It really sounds great when you get on it in sport mode. Then hardly noticable on hwy speeds.

So which one is better between S-type and Atak. I want a low mean rumble. Worried the S-type will be to quite and the Atak will be too loud lol. 6.2L if that matters.

I have the GMPP exhaust and intake on a 6.2L and I like the sound like others are saying...loud-ish at start-up and acceleration but quiet cruising.

I often think about possibly switching to the S-type for a bit more sound...but the wife and kids may not like it...

Honestly I really enjoy the Atak. If it is too loud you and add the second muffler and turn it into the s type

I'm another with the GMPP exhaust, but I also have the GMPP CAI too. It's quiet while crossing at highway speed, but put the throttle down and it rumbles to life.

I had my GMPE installed a little over a week ago. I love the sound. It's really perfect for me.

However, this is my first exhaust system on a truck, and I cannot tell if what I am hearing is drone or just the exhaust itself? Around 1500-1800 RPM cruising between 65-80mph, it really has this steady hum to it when you're driving on relatively flat roads, but with slight inclines.

You can hear it here around 40 seconds - but listen to the first 40 seconds to get a perspective for the cabin sound before the "drone-ish" sound comes in.

Any feedback on this?
