Richard Davies Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 I have 2008 Shelby GT500. Is there any drone associated with the installation of the Borla "Stinger" Cat Back Exhaust System Model 140135. Or do I have to install model 140210 that adds the X pipe?

3ponies Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 If your car is lowered be careful with Borla pipes. The set I had banged on the axle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2007tungstenGT500 Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 (edited) If your car is lowered be careful with Borla pipes. The set I had banged on the axle. i agree with that. that's happening to me now. my OEM pipes were crimped near the axle so there was more clearance. my borla pipes are mandrel-bent so there is less clearance. added a KR axle-reservoir kit to my car and now the breather tube fitting taps against the pipe, periodically. not sure what to do about it now.

Believe it or not I had to buy the original pipes AGAIN to fix the clang! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2007tungstenGT500 Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 (edited) yeah, i believe it. i originally bought the borla touring catback kit from shelby then sold the mufflers and left the catback pipes on. i still have the OEM pipes, but i'm tired of monkeying around with everything and i finally have it sounding exactly how i want it (hi-flow cats, resonators, KR mufflers).
