Default Borla Exhaust = good power???

Obviously this exhaust is the best bang for the buck for $500 bucks you even get the down pipe if I was reading correctly, my question is does it make comparable power to the high end systems???...I'm ok if it's close to others but if it's not even in the ballpark for power then I"m going to pass...Anyone have dyno results...or results compared to other systems.??

Default I think it should certainly be close for a stock turbo and a chip...

if I get a bigger turbo you will most likely want a bigger exhaust system to be making the best high end power. A good advantage of a medium diameter system is that you won't lose as much low end torque before the turbo spools.

Imagine what you could have done with an APR or Milltek exhaust.
