If you want to keep NPP, Borla is the only choice between the two.
If not, then go with whatever tingles your bits.

The Borla makes NPP much more useful. In Stealth, it's super quiet at all RPM since the valves don't open. In Tour mode, keep the engine below 3-3.5k rpm and it's quiet. Above that, the valves open and it's loud. Sport is just loud, period. It's so much fun.
Keep it in Tour or Stealth on road trips, then Sport when you're at your destination.

First exhaust I had was just an axleback that got rid of the NPP. I ended up uninstalling it (way too much drone) and going with the Borla Atak with no secondary cats NPP. The cold starts in stealth mode alone makes having the NPP all worth it, or when I'm creeping in my neighborhood late at night.

O.K. I have quite a bit of experience here. LOL Let me leave my feedback with each I had. Both cars retained secondary cats.
1st MRBP Axleback only eliminated NPP. Loud with a little drone but it sounded good. Boltons 2nd MRBP Axleback only don't have NPP so sounded about the same as above as all mods went from one car to the other. With both cars I had intake, exhaust and that's it. 3rd same car as 2nd but blown. It got LOUD 3rd Corsa Xtreme replaced MRBP. still just axle back. Not as loud but close. No real drone and just sounds cleaner Reason I changed out was ONLY because I got a deal of a lifetime on the Corsa which was like new. I have Kooks long tubes, high flow cats, and a full Corsa Xtreme on my blown C7 and lets just say it is just a monster. Bottom line is I love Corsa and their quality is second to none, but for the price MRBP was damn good.

I have the Borla S type (not the ATAK) in carbon fiber. I love it. I'm very happy with it. With the valves closed, it is like stock with the valves open. When they are open, the car has a nice roar, but it is not excessive. It really hits the sweet spot for me.

I may be wrong, but isn't the Borla S Type essentially the GM Performance exhaust? I believe I read somewhere that they sourced Borla to make it

Borla S
Quote:
My pick was Borla S (versus ATAK) since I knew I was going full-length tube headers with eventual CAT delete--on way to supercharged car. I opted for old fashioned chrome tips; didn't want black tips with black mosiac exterior. https://www.borla.com/products/camar...rt__11922.html The "S" had volume with rich sound--nice balance between old-style musclecar rumble at idle and newer style rasp roar at WOT. The ATAK was too raspy for me--and too loud at real low speeds (I like to avoid attention by law enforcement when possible). The Borla has no drone. Excellent quality. As part of recent build, the shop removed the valves in the Borla S that can cause obstruction for supercharged applications -- now it is quite loud under anything other than very slight acceleration. WOT is awesome. Idle sound clip provided below. https://onedrive.live.com/?id=F8733E...733E86EDFC276F
