I'm torn between Borla, Stainless Works and Solo....a few Q's for you guys
So I've now listened to so many YouTube videos of Camaro exhausts that my wife is threatening to ban me from the computer. Need your help. I'm looking for an exhaust note that is deep and smooth. I don't like sloppy and slappy exhausts. A little pop on decel is okay...but no redneck truck slap allowed...
I'm torn between the Borla S, Solo Mach X, and Stainless Works Retro Chambered. All cat backs. All running off stock LS3 header and cats. But I will have a Kenne Bell supercharger going on as well along with the exhaust (not sure how this will change the exhaust note?) Given my wants listed above for deep and smooth....which is the best here? And how do they rank from loudest to quietest? |

I have stainless works, so of course I'm going to say to go with that. But, you should do LT headers and HF cats first. You'll have the sound you're after if you do that and leave the rest stock.

Once spring comes rolling around, I'm going Solo. Guaranteed drone free (BIG upgrade from my current cat back), loud enough to let you know you have a V8 when you get on it, and a beautiful exhaust note.

The Solo and Stainless Works will be louder than the Borla S-Type. The Stainless Works is definitely the deepest tone of the three. It is no secret that I am personally partial to the Stainless Works.

I have ARH LT's HF cats and Corsa cat back - love the sound but too loud and can't do track days here in the UK because of it.... Of the three (Borla S, Solo Mach X, and Stainless Works Retro Chambered) which do you think would be the quietest with ARH LT's and HF cats? How would Borla Touring sound with ARH LT's and HF cats?

Throw in another vote for the Stainless works Retro; one of the best sounding systems out there IMO.

SOLO will provide very smooth note with zero drone - resonated X pipe does it's job. |
