I'd like to see the center duel myself, cutting should be required. Seems to be a lot of complaints about what's out there now. Not much good said about the sound either. Borla seems like the best chance for quality, and sound. Hope they go to the center duel.

Do something different: One big oval center exhaust "a la Porsche Boxster" would be awesome.

I remember the sound of the Triumph three-cylinder 750 motorbikes at the "Bol D'Or" (Le Mans) in the early 70s, and a three into one exhaust is music to the ears.

Do someting different: twin center exhaust is so Brabus and Four exhaust is both ridiculous for a 3-cylinder but has been done already in Germany (though thru the valence), so it looks better than your prototype in my opinion.

The great advantage of your prototype is that it sounds so sweet!!!

The week is over, got any updates?

Sorry, just picked up my car today and would LOVE a Borla to go on it to match the one on my e30 M3. Very nice sound from the vids, similar in tone to the M3's.
