Default BORLA vs FLOWMASTER

i think i made up my mind as to which to brands i'd like to get.as to what im looking for is a nice deep growl,and mybe a little gain in hp's though i allready know there will not be alot in just a cat-back.
i see borla has has the whole cat-back for sale which is good, but flowmaster does not so i would have to get a muffler shop to make one can i trust them to do it right?would it be safer to just get the borla being its a well popuular and thrusted name?which one has a deeper sound to it?borla or flowmaster 44's

That would be a real toss up without hearing the Borla. The exhasut shop can do the same thing but for probably a heck of a lot less. Best thing to do would be to call one and get a quote.

borla is expensive. i've always advocated dynomax since i got them., they are almost unheard when you first get them, but give it a thousand miels to break in. not too loud, but a good growl. best bang for the buck in my opinion. i've always been an opponent of flowmaster, so i'd say borla of htose 2

I swear by Flowmaster. I've had Flowmaster on every car from V6's to V8's alway got a good deep tone. Getting them on mycarjust waiting for my tips to come in. Borla is very expensive. And Magnaflow of a v6, can you say rice. I would go with Flowmaster for sure. Get the exhaust shop to do 2.5", res. delete, back to some Flowmaster 44's with your choice of tips.

I have borla on mine and love it, the link above is two exhaust clips of mine.

I have a Ebay intake, 2.5" random technology downpipe, high flow cat, u-bend delete and then the borla cat back.
