It won't be too loud with the proper mufflers. I wonder why so many people don't understand this concept. They say "removing this and that" will make the xB2 too loud...and those are the same people who use glasspacks, crap/small can mufflers, or just run it straight through with no muffler.

I would really like to see the quietest dual exhaust that is compatible with the 5 axis rear kit as well. I know they make the Borla, but I've read mixed reviews how quiet it is. Since some people have automatics, the last thing I want for my dual exhaust is droning or loud noise when I'm doing my 1 hour commute on a daily basis.

Again, if you can do a really nice looking, proper fitment, affordable dual exhaust, you would get my vote!

Ive got the single Borla, and it really is not loud. I had a 40 mile one way hwy commute in Va, and there was no droning.

Does the single Borla make the same sound as the dual Borla? And when you say "not loud" can you compare what it sounds like versus the stock one?

Not heard the duals. The single has a low rumble at lower rpm's, when accelerating without much effort, say around 2000 rpm's slowly down the road. At higher rpm's, it has less of a drone to me, and just a bit a louder than stock. When accelerating hard, the intake seems to over rule the exhaust. On the hwy, about 70, its just a nice hum. Ive had glasspacks and crap on trucks, and its nothing like that, and not even close to the hondas with the big fart can mufflers.
