Borla Cat-Back Installed!

Yeah! I got Borla cat-back installed to day on my 135i. I picked it from Amazon for a hell of a price. It was on sale last week for $633. This was the full cat-back which includes the mid's. I couldn't pass it up.

It sounds great, rode all the way home with the windows down and radio off.

Before you ask, it was new from Amazon and not a 3rd party vendor. It also shipped free with my Prime Membership.

I can try to get a sound clip, but it will have to be with my phone. I'll see what I can do.

Thanks for the response! Curious as to how loud this would be with cat-less downpipes.

Definitely would be a great replacement for my berk race axleback. Cold starts are brutal.

How was this so deeply discounted and no one else noticed?

Sorry this is the best I can do. It was taking with my cell phone.

Not sure why it was so heavily discounted, it actually dropped to $601 the day after I ordered mine and then is was back up to $1300 the following day.

I just happen to looking be looking around on Amazon, it was luck on my part.

Sounds very Borla-like. Deep/throaty. Sounds good.

From my understanding of drone, I would say yes it does. With the windows up and cruising at around 2500 to 3000 rpms, its loud inside the cabin.
