I have installed 2 of the 14888 kits...they fit ok , but not a COMPLETE cat back all the way to the cat!.I don't like the tips at all because they look cheesy to me IMO..Also the price is rediculous when you can get the Banks kit for half the price and IMO it is a better kit and with the $$ you save you can get more mods

ok, no wonder those look like crap, i think ill do what i did before and buy a fourth gen kit for 93-95 single cat and just convert it, those are cheaper and come with the square tips, borla is stupid to not offer the square tips with the thirdgen stuff

It's really hard to find third gen Borla exhaust anyway. Besides, it is way too much $$. I just ordered a whole flowmaster 3 chamber single pipe cat back for a dual cat car for $229 at Jegs, i think that is a good deal, and the single pipe doesn't look like a 3" even though it is. The ricers will think I have a V-6 or something, hahahahaha.
