What kind of cia did you go with? Did you notice any MPG or HP gain?Try a good cold air intake first. I have always gone with a muffler swap. But this time I did the cai first and am happy with the sounds it has unleashed. Ahh maybe I’m just Getting old.
Which model did you go with?I got a Flowmaster knock off from my preferred exhaust shop. Minimal drone but that's the price you pay if ya wanna play
Had Borla on my 16 Silverado that was tuned in conjunction with GM and it was a nice sound. However they are expensive. IMO, the best bang for my buck is Magnaflow (had it on previous Rams). Just finished installing their 19430 catback today. In a word, Wow! Whatever you choose, let us know.Hey OP I have a rebel on order and I'm looking at exhausts now. There are a bunch of exhaust games in town, and it's highly subjective taste based thing! If you're asking me for my opinion? I'm a borla guy. I have an XR1 on my 4th gen ram, and I've had tons of fun with it.
I'll never forget the first time I passed some dope in a prius on the highway when he finally moved out of the passing lane. Wide open throttle too.
"GODS I WAS STRONG THENN."
I'm leaving very heavily toward borla systems - as GM has sold their touring system and supposedly the mopar kit on the 5.7 Ram is a rebranded borla.
Borla has 3 levels.
ATAK for the guy who has to show the kid next door with the Honda who is boss
S-type is supposed to be their bread and butter
Touring is their "sleeper system." for people who want their neighbors to like them. It's supposed to be better flowing than stock (has that performance tech), a little more noise than stock, and wakes up when you stomp on it.
They claim no drone with any of their systems - but if you're looking for one that's fun without drone, I guess I'd go touring. One of the guys on this board had a GM with cylinder displacement (8 to 4) on a GMC I think, a 6.2L He liked the touring setup on that, no drone.
This week we're expecting to see a comparison video from borla with their 3 exhausts.

To be fair, I've had the MF on Rams and the Borla on a Silverado. With that stated, I am seeking to be impartial if possible. Answers below.Interesting, so you've had both?
Can I ask a bazillion questions, boiled down into 4??
1) which system is louder.
2) how is the borla's coldstart in cold weather? How does the MFs compare - initial impression?
3) how would you describe them sound wise?
Ex: the MF is more ____, the borla is more _____
4) lets say money was no object, which wouls you get?
To be fair, I've had the MF on Rams and the Borla on a Silverado. With that stated, I am seeking to be impartial if possible. Answers below.
1. MF is louder imo but not in a bad way.
2. I've not experienced issues with either in cold weather.
3. IMO the MF has a deeper sound that is fit for a V8 more than Borla.
4. MF. Money was not the deciding factor for me even though I saved about $500 by choosing MF. The deciding factor for me was my previous experience with both catbacks. Dont get me wrong, Borla is a great system but for me, MF checked all of the boxes.
In the end, you have to be happy with your selection and only you can know what will check all of the boxes for you.
This what you have? Any sound clips?
I would have to say that in my experience, the Borla is more subdued. There is also a 10% off Borla today only at AutoAnything.com
