Borla S-type Cat back

I had the AWE Touring CAT back with the resonators n my 2017 ZL1 and enjoyed the sound alot.

I have a new 1LE and I'm looking for a new exhaust.

Anyone here have the Borla S-type exhaust on their ZL1?
Borlas website lacks details. Does this system have the valve system?

Has anyone e seen the carbon fiber tips?

You already had the best exhaust with the best tips. Why go with anything else?

Yes, check my posts. You can get it with npp (valves) which is what I have.

Only because you haven't heard AWE in person.

i have the S-Type with carbon fiber tips and npp valves. You can get it without the npp valves to save some money if you wish.

I listen to all the videos i could find for exhaust on youtube for ZL1s. I can tell you none of them do the S-Type justice. Its just the right amount of loud when you want it and you can defiantly tell when you close the valves it changes the sound immediately. I couldn't tell when it changed on the stock but it is definable on the borla. I went with borla some because of the name and the other is the npp function which wasn't available on corsa when i bought the borla. I still would have went with borla due to the tonal difference from corsa. In the end it is way to hard to judge the sound on youtube but if you do go with borla you will not be dissapointed

I have the Borla S-Type Axle Back with the Carbon Fiber Tips with the NPP and love the look and sound.
There are people who don't like the tips or the look, but to each their own.
I looked at other set ups and heard different set ups, so I went with what I liked could care less what other people think

That looks really good. Thanks for the close up pictures. Any issues with the Borla Emblems fading?

I looked at a few different brands (and heard them on person) and the s-type had me sold. I really liked it paired with headers. Increased the deep tone alittle and, imo, makes it perfect.
