Good morning ladies and gents, curious as to what’s a good ball park pricing to get borla exhaust installed? Just ordered my s type and was trying figure out what shop to go to have it done by, but also know what’s fair pricing. If anyone has any recommended places in nyc / nj/ Long Island area I would greatly appreciate it!

It’s a 2 hour driveway job with basic hand tools if you have a place to work. Could save you some cash.

Random question is the borla saving some weight vs stock or do they weigh roughly the same?

The Borla is quite a bit lighter. Exactly I'm not sure but was definitely lighter.

It’s definitely lighter but I forgot to weigh the factory one when it came off. Those Ford mufflers are huge though.

I got quoted 225 I’m going to do it on Saturday because the shop comes highly recommended I am so anxious I want it on now but I rather have quality work done than someone just out to catch a quick buck

I love this thing. S type gives it a nice tone not to “ricey” at all ! No drone at all what so ever. Was debating on the atak but haven’t seen many videos on it and borla own video sounded similar to me

Those black tips look really good. And from all of the videos I have seen the exhaust note reminds me of the Nissan VQ engines, which I have always thought were the second best souding V6's anyways (second to VW VR6 variants)

Yeah I agree like the fx35 / g35 ... definitely not bad for a v6. I like that it’s noticeable but incognito at the same time because they don’t expect it from an “explorer” lol

Depending on videos of the downpipe install with the s type. That will possibly be the last exhaust mod for me
