Default Exhaust question

Was thinking about buying a dual exhaust for my xB2, but wondering what the gains would be in horse power would be for the Borla vs Tsudo Fireball? How much they would add each, and how each one sounds?

FWIW -- the Borla doesn't replace the challenged OE midpipe (between the "scuba" and axleback), and the axleback is pipe only (no resonators). Whereas, the Tsudo upgrades the midpipe and has removable baffle resonators in the axle back. Ultimately, it comes down to what you prefer ! Check YouTube for examples of both.

I have had my Tsudo for about 4 years now and just love it! Def a great exhaust to go with when it comes to duals. That's my vote! TSUDO!

you will get a marginal gain of power, but a considerable gain in exhaust noise.

Both have happy owners, you're just going to have to make your own call. Best wishes with it !
