Re: borla xr1 & complete exhaust

id say 5 hp at the most...itll be better on the 350 certainly sound better but once you drop in the 350 you might want to think about headers, thats where youll get a lot more hp...

Re: borla xr1 & complete exhaust

ditto, the xr1 i had on my 383 was brutal loud but the motor is stout so its gonna be hard to tame that sound.

yours will sound good and be louder than stock thats for sure but shouldnt be over bearing

catbacks are generally good for 5-10hp depending
