GEN 2 Borla Front Muffler impressions

I have a Borla S-type exhaust on my 18 SCREW, it's stupid loud (came from the dealer this way). Borla has a front muffler (Borla Performance Front Muffler Option (PN-60650)), does anyone have any experience with this part and how effective is it at sound attenuation?

Thanks.

Resonator will def help! If not just sell the Borla and put the stock one on. Anyone will trade you.

thanks, I dont have the stock one, the dealer got rid of those parts long before i came along. but i think the Ford Performace exhaust set up is the S-type with a resonator so imma go that way.

I’m pretty local to you. If you ever wanna go stock lmk. I’ll trade lol

You will want to find a stock system them. All the aftermarket systems yield an awful sound. That is why you see so many people going back stock. It has the least offensive sound.

A resonator almost always helps. I had a Nissan 4x4 with a 2400cc four cylinder engine. I put Doug Thorley headers on it and a Flowmaster muffler. It sounded like a Space Shuttle launch, and the muffler rang like a bell every time I hit the torque peak. Put an 18 inch Flowmaster resonator on it, and the difference was absolutely remarkable in terms of both sound volume and sound quality.

I have the atak on my 2019 and it was waaay to loud for me so I took off the xpipe and added the 60650 resonator and it's much quieter now.

So... I too chose the Borla ATAK... way too loud. I too added the resonator and got rid of the x-pipe... much better but still VERY DISSAPOINTED. Waste of money.

I bought my vehicle new, the dealer was trying to create an SCA like build, they added ADD bumpers, KMS wheels, Nitto Tires, a crap-ton of Rigid lights, and this ******* S-type exhaust, no performance mods.

I'm given to understand that the ATAK is actually louder than the S-type. Are you disappointed in the exhaust? or in the functionality of the resonator?
