Does anyone know where to buy a BORLA Catback in Canada? I can find tons of suppliers (websites) to order off of but they are all from the states (brokerage fees, shipping, etc). Hoping to find someone in Canada, anyone know?
Also, I checked out http://www.steeda.ca and I am assuming that the STEEDA 2.5" Exhaust is just a rebadges BORLA. Anyone know? The exhaust tip looks the same on the STEEDA one as the BORLA.....
Jay (Thabrat) might know, anyone else??

Just a quick question, would you buy the STEEDA exhaust (rebadged Borla), it's alot cheaper on their website ( http://www.steeda.ca) then I seem to find it for anywhere else around here. Just curious as to what some of your opinions are...

I found it a little cheaper though http://www.steedafocus.ca (not steeda.ca) not sure if they are affiliated or whatnot... $550 plus GST and $25 for shipping, not bad. About $625 door to door.
I can get a Magnaflow for $400 though the dealership.... not sure if I should just go with that but I want something different, not to many cars around here, actually haven't seen one yet has a Borla, let alone any (more than one) Steeda part.....

I have the Borla and love it, really good quality. However the best deal on an exhaust right now is probably from MBRP, $199US.
http://www.ford-focus.mbrp.com/
Plus they are located in Ontario so shipping would be cheap.

borla is too loud IMHO.. you will tire of it quickly.. especially on long hwy drives
i had the AEM exhaust, which was almost as loud.. and i didn't like it too much after a while

They are located in Canada? That is awesome!! That means no @&#*ing brokerage fees in shipping. I am ordering this tomorrow. I emailed them a couple times today to find out about shipping and all that. Right on, can't wait!!!

I LOVE the Borla sound....and everybody thats heard it has said the same. It is very loud if you drive er, but one the highway I find she quiets down quiet a bit. I've also been driving it for the past 4 years, so I've probably gotten acustomed (sp) to it.

I know, I still can't believe it!!! At the Regina G2G a couple weeks ago, my buddy's car (Focis8nt) had just installed a MBRP, sounds awesome, a bit louder than Magnaflow but definitely sweet. Can't pass up a deal like that, that's like 40% off and with the company being in Canada, no stupid ass border fees and brokerage fees, etc plus you gotta love the two day delivery, might even have it before the weekend. Super super happy!!!

Yes, excellent deal, I paid over 600 CDN for my MBRP over a year ago.
Here's their focus page with nice sound clips
