Help on mbrp exhaust replacement
I have the mbrp catback race and I loved it until longtubes were installed and cats went away. Now I’m looking for something to quiet it down just from axle back. So I liked the sound so something similar in sound but quieter when I don’t have the pedal on the floor. I live in a small town and you can hear it currently from one side to the other when I’m not even trying to accelerate quickly.

I have looked Myself as well. Strictly from what I’ve heard online borla s type sounds super close to atak. So is awe or borla touring the better option?

I bought the car with 4k miles and it already had the suitcase gone. Would a touring axle back quiet it down a bit under low acceleration but still scream when I floor it

No. Sadly the stock muffler is the only thing resembling quiet with headers. His post is right, any other muffler will be loud as hell. You need a proper mid-muffler.

Check out the solution at the end of this thread. Get the Jones X Mid Muffler, and make sure it isn't the double-y. This will provide the most help in quieting down your exhaust, and much cheaper so worth it as a first step I think.
I will likely go with Borla S Type and this mid muffler when I get headers. https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showt...highlight=2650

This is what I had to do too. Kooks 2" w/green cats into MBRP axle backs was way too loud and droned at 1600-1800 rpms. Put the stock suitcase back on. Tour mode is just too quiet, sounded like a v6. I have tour and sport the same...always open except in 8th.

I like the sound of my AWE but the sound inside the car was loud. Here is my solution that cut the sound in half inside. I used 80 mil Killmat and 315 mil Noico for the win.
