this exhaust made me smile so big

[@matttuesday71]

Thanks for all the product reviews and install tips. Your videos helped me pick between the Borla attack and corsa ..... Went with corsa ! Thanks again

[@andrewpulcini6571]

Again awesome video bill :) sounds amazing !! I just got my borla s type catback in today and I have the biggest smile on my face. Delivery was super fast . Very impressed because I got it 3 days after ordering it and I live in canada . The quality and finish is second to none. Can't wait to put it on once the snow is melted :) keep up the great work 😊

[@tylersmith3646]

Just did the install 3inch BORLA ATAK on my 17 mustang gt and this video was a huge help. The instructions that came with the kit were okay but i would have struggled more than i did without this video. THANKS!

[@stangmann1521]

3'' ATAK is the way to go , love mine... !!!

[@Travide]

@@stangmann1521 I done the 2.5 inch. How did your x pipe hook up to the factory manifold ? Im now stuck on finding catted headers to fit my 2.5 inch atak system

[@stangmann1521]

That's why i went with the 3'' because I was told the 3" is best fit for headers and intake or boost for better air flow ! I want to install a catted headers system too ! Keep looking , you will find something that works well !

I got the Borla Atak for my 2017 GT and wow. Love the sound and it really wakes the care up. From the factory it sounds good but this thing really screams at you. It's a loud but it also has a great tone to it as well, something I think the Corsa lacks.

[@RomanChaar]

GamerNRetro is it raspy or tinny at all?

[@antonematos6241]

@@RomanChaar When you open it up it tends to get raspy even revving on the lower rpm’s sometimes but over all it’s like a deep rasp it sounds really good

[@HansSoloYolo]

awesome review and useful install, thanks!

[@aricohen616]

+CJ Pony Parts I love your videos! After 20 years of driving crappy used cars, I finally ordered my dream car! It's a 2016 Mustang GT, Performance Pack with Guard paint, black stripes, saddle leather interior, 6spd and all the fixings. I want to get a cat-back exhaust, but I'm having a difficult time deciding between: - FRPP Sport (loud) - FRPP Touring - Roush axle back + X-pipe I love the look / sound of the FRPP sport but I've been told it's very loud, bordering on obnoxious. I'm used to loud V-twin bikes so I want the mean growl. The Roush is deeper and sounds sweet too. I'm afraid if I go for the Touring I might want something louder in a couple of months. BTW: I've watched every KZbin video on S550 exhaust I can find about 20 times, but it's difficult to decide. Appreciate any feedback!

[@Zerogivengarage]

+Ari Cohen I had the touring and switched initially to the Borla S type which I absolutely loved! I have since switched to the quad tip Ford Sport which sounds really good but I still like the S Type just a little better. The Roush with an X pipe delete will be LOUD, much louder than the others you are interested in.

[@aricohen616]

Bill Tumas Thank you! That's really interesting. I had thought the FRPP Touring / Borla S-type were the same systems, and that the FRPP Sport / Borla Atak were the same. But I just now watched your S-type video and I understand. So in your opinion the S-type sounds loud enough, but not too loud where neighbors will hate me? I realize that it's all subjective. I think you and I probably have very similar tastes in exhaust sounds. I want deep, mean, growl with some crackle. But I don't want screaming, raspy, eardrum-popping racer exhaust. This will be my daily driver. As long as you don't think I'll think the S-type is too quiet, I'll order it from your store. Thanks again, buddy!

[@Zerogivengarage]

+Ari Cohen The sport and the S type are very similar sounding. The Touring is much quieter the ATAK is much louder. To me the S type had the perfect tone. Decent tone for normal driving, aggressive when on it, zero drone on the highway

[@aricohen616]

Thanks buddy! Merry Christmas. :)

[@Zerogivengarage]

+Ari Cohen you too!

[@therealSAGA]

Can we hear this with the MRT H-Pipe please? That might be perfect IMO anyway! Thanks!

[@rodolfoquiroga6000]

Your friends face was priceless when you were gonna drop the exhaust hahaha

[@keithl8140]

That pop at 6:03 is the shit. I gots to have it on my 2015. Does anybody know a set of mufflers that has more pop than this one?

[@mikew3737]

Would you recommend Anti Seize Lubricnat? Corsa seems to highly recommend it in their install manuals, but I've yet to even see a mention of it in any install videos.

[@peterwho9380]

I went with Borla S-Type axel back married with an X pipe and MAK Cat deletes... April 27 2021 Update: Installing the MAK CAT deletes was a HUGE mistake and don't know how anyone can survive running that setup! I was going home, got stuck in traffic for 30+ minutes and still recovering from the exhaust fumes! Will be going back to my Borla S-Type with X pipe setup tomorrow.

[@cornflarf]

Bill, I'm trying to make up my mind on what I what I want. Which is louder, the ATAK, the Corsa Xtreme, or the full catted ARH system?

[@renegarcia7591]

Hey bill if you don't plan on adding headers is this system manageable or is it still to high pitched?

[@shawnr9036]

So Bill, since you have had some time with the Borla ATAK Catback I am curious if you still prefer the Borla S set up? Which ever one you prefer can you explain why? Thank you for your time and keep up the good work.

[@Zerogivengarage]

I went back to the Borla S type on my car. I liked the ATAK but it was a little too loud for my taste and I have some Kooks longtubes with no cats waiting in the wings which would only make it louder.

[@itzsikorsky4357]

So if you wanted to, you could easily install shorty BBK catted xpipe replacing the borla xpipe. Right?

[@ibshabba22]

LOL the OH S#!t eyes at "2:46" when the the muffler was about to fall.

[@C_Scalese]

Im sold 😈

[@blakdrago7202]

would the sound still be loud if I just add the pipes and not the muffler tips. I would like to keep my gt500 quad tips.

[@gt8674]

I would like to know what’s the best headers that will fit with this system.

[@Zslowzr1]

Bill just wondering why you say build quality is better then Flowmaster. I thought Flowmaster was too build quality and backs their product for life? The Flowmaster outlaws actually seem a little louder than the borla. Also do you have any idea what the weight of the stock, borla and Flowmaster is?

If one day my dream comes true and i ll own a mustang gt would I be able to order this in Germany? Do you guys have world wide shipping? And how much would the shipping cost?

[@michaelcookielover6091]

Hey Bill, been binge watching your videos. Plan on buying a 2015-16 GT Prem vert in June. I havent seen any LT headers videos. I think the S-type Borla is for me (had Borla on my 04 GTO). Do you think LT headers and S-type would be as loud as the ATAK (so should I go with touring instead)? I've already made a list of parts to order....Vinyl blackout kit, 4th brake light kit, CAI and seq taillights.

[@Zerogivengarage]

The headers with cats don't add too much volume so I would say it will still be quieter than the atak. we do have a longtube video with the ARH headers for the 15.

[@wjlowe111]

Which is louder ; The Atak or Rousch SS Axel Back with MRT H-Pipe u think?

[@MrBBoy333]

Hey Bill, what is the name of the yellow driver you use, it seems to come in very hand and would help installs go a lot quicker then hand wrenching every bolt. Thanks!

[@Zerogivengarage]

Bailey Parker It is Dewalts compact 14.4V 1/2 impact gun. Not a lot of torque so its pretty safe to use for most things.

[@justinroberts10]

Alright Bill, since you are the exhaust master I need your opinion. I have a 2014 GT with offroad H, deleted resonators, and GT500 axle backs. The volume is about right but it has a raspy tinny tone. What axle backs would be good for a deep smooth sound with minimal drone on my set up?

[@Zerogivengarage]

Honestly I don't think you will find anything less raspy and deeper and smoother than what you have with an offroad pipe and no resonators. I love the sound of the Borla S type with an off road X, I ran that for awhile on my 2011 GT. It has no drone but was pretty loud at WOT

[@justinroberts10]

Dammit! I was looking at the Magnaflow street axle back but I guess Ill have to throw some quality resonators back in. Thanks for the input man

[@h80282]

Do u prefer this or roush axleback with ford racing xpipe? Or ford racing exhust?

[@imAwesome4lyfe]

Does the sound or amount of drone change with a convertible?

[@jamesst1809]

Stock still sounds so good props to ford but borla is just unreal

[@elmer1949]

Cj which exhaust makes the most power ?

[@bendouglas6187]

Looking at one of these systems for my 2016 GT just wondering if fitting the 3" borla ATAK cat back system to a stock engine cause any dramas? It says on the websight only recommended for vehicles with substantial engine upgrades but was just curious how it would cope on a stock engine

[@ethan3w157]

Ben Douglas it will be fine

[@aboosnony4712]

Can i give my dodge charger srt installation at home i have all the tools to installation and i get the borla

[@nrsimhavallabha5128]

Thanks for the video, Bill. I have 2 questions, which one is the loudest on WOT for the 2015 GT, Flowmaster Outlaw Catback or Borla Atak Catback? Also, is this Borla Atak the same as the Ford Racing one?

[@Zerogivengarage]

The Outlaws drone terribly so we do not offer them. The ATAK is unique to Borla, the systems Borla provides for Ford Racing are also specific.

[@starTman7]

Bill Tumas I can attest to that. I had the outlaws on my 14 Mustang GT and while they were very loud and sounded awesome at WOT, the drone was miserable on the highway for any length of time.

[@Calking209]

Really stuck between the Corsa Xtreme or the Borla Atak, what do you think? I'm going for loud and aggressive w/ a solid muscle sound

[@ethan3w157]

Calking209 volume is about the same, the borla ATAK is deeper

[@Zslowzr1]

Hey Bill, just wondering i you could tell me the differences between this system and the Flowmaster Outlaw Catback? I watched sound clips of both and they sound very similar, but the Flowmaster looks like it's lighter and it'd also 200 less. Can you comment on the sound, build quality and weight o these two systems so I can make uo my mind of which one to buy?

[@Zerogivengarage]

Evan Salas Build quality is superior on the Borla for sure. No drone at all for the Borlas while the Outlaws are kind of known for it. I have never heard the Outlaw in person on the 15 but I was not a fan on the 11-14

[@deafbydoubleds6259]

Hi Bill, between this exhaust and the MBRP Aluminized 3" Street Series exhaust which one has the Deeper Nicer note ? to me from the videos the MBRP is deeper and has a nicer note to it where as this Borla ATAK is just purely Loud, but the sound through video could lie, whats your thoughts ?

[@Zerogivengarage]

The sounds on the video are pretty accurate. The MBRP street is quieter than the ATAK for sure, so is the race for that matter.

[@Cayden1988]

Can anyone attest to having this exhaust and switching on wet snow mode of it gets quiet lol.

[@cjponyparts]

Wet and snow mode kills throttle response so they would make sense.

[@anthonysumlin2808]

Do you have to have the xpipe or can you just have the actual borla mufflers

[@SheLuvsWild]

Will this fit in a GT California special

[@aldolizalde481]

[@hdkaratekid]

hey bill, do you guys plan to get the roush quad tip exhaust for the 2015 mustang? if so, when,

[@Zerogivengarage]

As soon as they are available. We have the quad tip valance already.

[@TheHDskaters]

where are the 2 post lift point located?

[@Jewnbug1]

So which exhaust has the nice loop sound on idle but more of the higher pitch like this when revving/gunning it ?

[@Gatorsrok]

+Gale Hollis Corsa for sure, kind of hard to tell how it sounds through recording, its a very crisp raspy exhaust yet deep at idle.... I was so stuck between the frpp and corsa and thought Id get the frpp for sure. Working for ford, I had two similar 5.0's come in, one with the corsa extreme, the other with the full frpp cat back and I can hands down say the corsa sounds the best. The Frpp does sound good at low rpms but is a little bit quieter and gets a little sloppy sounding at higher rpms..

[@karlmalone11]

How do you like the Recaros? I have a pretty wide back and I am wondering if the recaros will be hugging me tight to the point where I wont even fit in them.

[@Zerogivengarage]

karlmalone11 I love them! I am a pretty big guy myself and I fit great in them

[@78910turbo]

Bill, does the borla atak have a deep tone or is it raspy? I am not able to figure it out from the video

[@Zerogivengarage]

Mohammed syed It is deep at lower rpms but is aggressive and raspy at higher rpms

[@Ner0blaz3r]

[@renegarcia7591]

@Bill Tumas answer his question please! I want to know this too!

[@32samiscool]

Will this exhaust work on a 2015 mustang gt convertible?

[@1970jstone]

I am still confused. I've recently read that removing the factory resonator can trigger check engine light and that it interferes with how the engine pulses gases through the exhaust. I want my car to sound aggressive...but not at the expense of performance headaches. Can you clarify this issue for me? Does removing the resonator cause engine stalls, exhaust scavenging issues, and error codes to the Mustang?

[@chriscook7219]

No I doesn't removing the cats will cause a check engine light if not tuned, but not a resonator delete.

[@trixxgamer1208]

hey bill i as wondering if i press on the clutch with it make the borla atak quit?

[@Zerogivengarage]

[@Zerogivengarage]

Mauro's-Red-Mustang#13 - Both are very loud but have different tones. I would lean towards the Roush and off road H or X four pure volume.

[@isaacs8409]

[@Necropolisx0]

Most definitely. I have one on my 2016 mustang gt and I've gotten complains from neighbors due to me having to leave for work at 6am and because of how loud it is. Just like he said I tested it out and my friends could still hear me from a mile away so I understand how my neighbors feel when I turn it on in the mornings. Especially during a cold start
