It was an easy 1/2 hr install. The hardest part was getting the stock muffler off the rubber mounts. Very nice mellow tone and cut some weight too.the stock muffler is heavy!

Looks good,but how does it sound.Doesn't Borla only make a axle-back system for the Vibe/Matrix.

Yeah, axle back is probably a better description. The sound is a deep mellow tone, not too loud. I haven't had it on the HWY. yet to see if it has a drone. Definitely not as loud as my Borla Stingers on my Z06.

It was under 3k. My wifes Maxima is usually parked under the Z, but the Vibe fits too. Here's my other toy. under construction It's a '50 Ford Business Coupe.

thats awesome..the vibe looks like it barely fits under the hoist though

i agree with the cutting weight part...it was good to be rid of that septic tank back there. I love the sound of my borla...it's got a nice deep rumble to it (well atleast as deep a rumble you can get with a 4 banger).

keithvibe · Post by **keithvibe** » Sat Aug 11, 2007 9:01 am

I bet the vibe wouldn't fit if it still had the roof rack on it... Dude you need to move. And when you do move in next door to ME HAHAHA

i've always wanted to buy a good sized house with a huge backyard, with like a barn, and convert the barn to a shop/garage, with a hoist and all the tools and maybe a paint booth...with a lil office upstairs to do drafts and stuff..someday i will..someday

Yeah, Nothing a 2" drop won't solve. I was surprised, that it wasn't louder.It's a nice tone!! This is a GREAT Car!!! I can't believe how much I like it!!
