Click that link and see the dyno's. Borla got more HP and TRQ than teh MBRP, granted its like a .5 difference, but that could be a few extra ponies with more aggresive mods. And I've heard the MBRP......much more honda sounding than my Borla. ;) Your the 1st person to say the borla sounds ricey. :blink: :blink: If anything.....the comments I get on the car are either "Is that thing Turbo" or "Your car sounds bad ass". I picked it up from Embrun Ford after my whole ordeal with the ignition locking..... "Your car just sounds downright mean" :D :D That came from a guy that drives a 300Hp+ Mustang Mean.....Not ricey :rolleyes: :lol:

The sound clip on MBRP is from what I believe a ZX3. If you saw NOS at the BBQ, yeah his is the SPI with the MBRP. That nice deep tone doesn't sound like high pitched rice... As for .5hp above MBRP, its immaterial. If you did pack that on to an agressively modded car, yeah it would give you a few more ponies perhaps, but maybe the MBRP would show good results as well.

I think they re-engineered the zetec systems. I've heard paolo's and the one we put on my buddies wagon sounds completley different. It sounds sexy. nice deep mellow tone. My svt just sounds raspy and angry
