New catback on the 5th gen
There's a certain red T/A in front of it if you look closely lol. Retired the Borla Sport (S-type) axle back for a Pypes catback yesterday.

I'm not even sure of the brand on mine, but it is catback only. I will have to get a clip.

It's is much louder than the quiet Borla Sport axleback that was on it before. I'll have to use a real camera sometime to record audio lol, the old Galaxy S5 just isn't cut out for it. There is a Borla ATAK which would be comparable to a LM in fbody terms; the Pypes setup is a bit milder than that. The video is a little on the flaky side, but I just wanted something quick to throw online.
No drone, which the Borla did have on the highway. It uses two glasspack style mufflers in a different location than the normal 5th gen exhaust setup.
Here's a pic:

That has to be about 50lbs lighter than the stock setup, lol! Stock mufflers are enormous!

A Borla Sport system which had a decent tone but no volume. A lot of people have told me it sounded great or was perfect, but coming from a cammed/stalled TBSS with LT's and a cutout that was open 99% of the time, it was way too quiet for me.
I will be picking up a set of LT's from Gail after my T/A is done later this year or next year. Should really wake the car up all around.
