I don't know anything about the Bosal but I am sure it's a decent system.

We do have some info on the Borla though.

That's fine and all, however, i'm not playing vendor here right now... I'm just giving the line i've been using for the past 3 years

Bosal is deep, sound, but some people don't like it. I always suggest the Stromung cause that and the Cobb bring out the meanest, deepest boxer sound. They are also straight through muffler designs, whereas the Bosal is a cambered setup, like flowmaster/STi/Stock setup. I just personally prefer the stromung/cobb/magnaflow sound and performance over the other types of exhuasts.

If you want the borla, you know who to call
