I also saw a borla kit...

I have the borla cat-back system and it fits perfectly and sounds nice when you are driving down the road and at wot it is very loud. then at a stop you cant really hear it. that is with my na 3.8 so i think on your sc3.8 it would be a little louder

So, After evaluating that, I realized that clearance might be an issue!

I wonder if the dual tips will fit in where the single tips are currently...
