lol...ah the poor Bas***ds don't want to get their hands dirty!!

Find another shop!

 

hahh thats what i thought as well, however, they did tell me i should have my body kit on first before i install an exhaust so im going to try to get it put on very shortly, just have to find the right shop, then i will get this exhaust, they wanted to put flowmasters, which i think arent that great for jags, but i could be wrong.

 

I never did like flowmaster because they were so louder then it need to be, plus at the time they never made their mufflers in stainless steal. Borlas were/are known for their quality and the fact that they come with a million mile warranty was nice. The sounds they omitt was very nice too...deep but not too loud.

 

yea i decided im going with the borlas, im ordering them tuesday. Yea flowmasters are more of a honda civic thing to me ahhah. Also i need to get teh side skirts for my car i have only the front and back. Umm is xp the best place to do that?

 

I ordered my Borlas from XP. Price was good, but the whole thing was a weird experience. When they weren't showing up when they said I asked for a tracking number and they were very non-committal on that and then finally said they were shipped to the wrong address and it would take a few days to send out another shipment. Never heard anything and after several days they e-mailed back some excuse, etc.. Long story longer...I got them, but it took about six weeks for something that was promised in about 10 days. I got what I ordered at a good price, but the way the whole thing unfolded made me a bit leery about ordering from them again. Just a personal experience. I would rather pay a bit more from somewhere that is responsive and gives good service than how this transaction unfolded. The guy did tell me he would throw something extra into the shipment for my trouble and that turned out to be a Borla hat that probably just came with the mufflers anyway.

 

yea ive heard that before. I baught something and it was fine. However, my buddy found them for even cheaper, so i will prob go off of that site. yea i dont want 2 wait 8 years for them ahhah

 

well don't be shy about telling us what site you found, what they cost and how the service was! We all like to know these things!

 

Did you install the Borlas yourself? I assume they were just axle back and wondered how hard it was????

 

Oh yea no problem, i have no problem sharing the site, i will ask my buddy tonight for it, so i can post it. Also i have not yet installed them, but yes i am installing them myself with my buddy, we are going to cut and weld everything by ourselves . Wish me luck on that one, ill post some pics up with that. I know that the borlas require cutting of the tips and welding. At least taht is what i was told.I want to get them on before i install my body kit. The only problem with my kit is i dont have the side skirts. Some people are telling me oh you need them, and others are telling me they really dont make a diffrence i dont think u need them. So idk what to do about that lol.

 

Somebody is giving you bad info! The Borlas installation is easy as 1 .2. 3. Cut your old mufflers off, install new Borlas with the clamps they provide.

Took me 30 min. (and that includes drinking a beer)

I don't know where you/your friend got the idea that welding is required and what not. Plus they come with a million mile warranty....can't beat that!

 

haha ha beer yea always have to have room for one of those. Actually i probably wont be a suprise to you but the exhaust shop near me told me it had to be welded. I guess they saw a poor sap that they could milk more money out of. At least i know cause im going to do it with my buddy. That sight that he saw, well i had to slap him it was cheaper cause the cash was in EUROS! hahaha. But i did purchase the borlas today from minagallary.com hopefully they ship as quick as my grill did! Then its off to the next project

 

lol, ok...but i tell ya...no welding required...cheers!

 

ahah yes good to know! Thats will be a lot easier.

 

I was looking for exhaust for my x-type and i ended up just cutting off the mufflers. the exhaust stops just after the rear end, and it suprising sound good. I had a set of flow masters we were going to weld on but after starting up it with the straight pipes we opted to leave them off.

 

also I have been looking for a sport tune is there any where else besides arden that has a tune for a x-type 2.5 v6

 

seen a few but i beleive arden is the best

 

Hey i just baught the borlas off of jaguar xp, however, it said for a 2002 modle after i baught it. Is that going to fit my 2005?

 

Yes, they will fit. For some reason if you plug in a different year other than 2002 on most sites (even Borla's) you come up with no available application. They are the same and will fit perfectly.
Racer''s right, it is simple. If I remember correct, on Borla's site they have installation instructions and it really is 1, 2, 3. You'll love 'em. More aggressive sound, but not obnoxious and I think they look great too. Just make sure where you cut them. Measure twice (3? 4?) times, cut once. Good luck! I think an agressive, full-bodied beer goes best with a Borla. Guiness perhaps?

 

haha thanks for the insight man, yea that sounds good with the beer and all ahhah.

 

Cool air intake worthed? If so where can i get one? Also are they easy to install and uninstall. I found out i have a while to go on my warrenty and i dont want to ruin it, but i figured a cool air intake i can take on and off. But one kid told me it leaves fluids that can ruin the car. Any ideas? The dealer said that my borlas wont viod the warrenty because they are just mufflers. haha.
