Got Exhasut ???'s About Borla Fitting
ok i just won my borla exhaust (ebay) and hopefully got a good deal.
Any way, i have heard that the borla is not a direct bolt on like they say. I tired a search but none of the posts jumped out and exactly said what needed to be modified. I really dont ant to cut, or bend alot of the parts on my car because i would like to keep my car original. Like i have said in many of my other posts, i know that when you ad aftermarket oprions to a car, you will have to make some mods. so my main question is, how much was shaved,cut,bent,removed etc... to get it fitted just right. also please add ur
on how u like the exhasut from putting on to present. thanks albert IIIEXHAUST ON eBay

yeah you got a good deal seeing as how on hawks it is $700 for the system and from borla direct its $907. not sure about the installation though.

It's just a matter welding new hangers to correctly fit your 3rd gen. If you are having a shop weld your exhaust system, make sure they line it up correctly. Now all you need is the electric cut out in place of the different size hole spacer you get with the set up.
