What is OEM exhaust on Saleen S/C? - 11-01-03, 10:00 PM

I went to a SVT dealership and had 'em start up a 03 Saleen w/ the S/C. The dealer said it had Borla exhaust. Which one does it have? Is it the same that is on the Saleen website (2.5 catback for $699?). Thanks.

I know this thread is probably dead but the 03 saleen s/c has a magnaflow exhaust system with a saleen x-pipe. I would know because I own one.

Anybody heard a side-by-side comparison between the Borla and Magnaflow?

Good question. My saleen has the magnaflows with X and sounds nothing like I thought a saleen would sound like. Pretty damn weak IMO. How does your saleen sound?

borla sounds better by far...with a bassani x no cats and exhaust cut outs its sounds rediculous crazy, i love it.

Thats because Saleens have to use the factory converters.....

They quiet the car down quite a bit.....

I like the sound of the Magnaflows better.....

I have heard a Saleen with Borla and Magnaflow side by side and the Magnaflow is deeper then the Borla....and has a lot smoother sound to it
