    I just installed one of these. I chose this over the URD as I do not care for the noise they produce, and over the AFE because that doesn't actually reroute the exhaust and still hangs under the frame. Overall the Borla is a pretty nice y-pipe and I would recommend but it's not without its issues. Hopefully the following info can help someone looking into this system.

    The good: It's beautifully built and looks fantastic, comes with all necessary heat shields and makes the truck sound a little throatier giving it a tone more similar to the 4.0l on accel (mine's paired with the MF Overland catback), but seems a little quieter on the highway.

    The bad: Their instructions say to reuse the stock donut gasket between the y-pipe and catback, but the 60mm stock gasket does not fit on their 62mm piping, so I had to source a replacement. The passenger side of the piping would allow for perfect fitment if it were about 1/2" longer.
