LTs, ORY, Borla sound?

Well I am not thrilled with the sound of Pacesetter long tubes no emissions and ORY with my wide open borla especially for intown driving. Anyone on here have experience with that combo? Does getting a high flow cat help? I'm going to try out the various plates today but how much does that affect hp? Would a GMMG catback be worthwhile to get instead?

QTP makes a cutout just for the Borla, it goes in place of the plates so you can change the sound from inside the car at a whim. Before I sold my Borla for the GMMG that's what I was going to do.

What made u decide to get a GMMG instead of the electric cutout? I do like the way the oval tips on GMMG look better than borla tips.

After hearing both I liked the sound of the GMMG better but that's pure opinon though. I still really like the sound of the Borla and you can't go wrong with it.
I guess I'm one of the only people that actually like the Borla tips and don't care for the GMMG tips. The GMMG tips are just way to cheap for my liking, I know people go crazy for them but they have no lip to them whatsoever so if you are looking at the car straight on from the rear you won't even notice them. There's a reason my car has Corsa tips and not GMMG.

What is it that you don't like about the sound? Too loud? Not deep enough? Just curious because that may give us a slightly better idea of a system you would like better.

I put in the 1 3/4" plate and I like the sound now Guess this thread was kind of premature lol. I did some research and it seems like I will not be losing hp really by having this plate in. It sounded way too much like an old loud truck before. It is better now less raspy more of a deep tone.
