Borla Sport to Loud?

Has anyone bought a Borla Sport (Not the Street) and thought it was too loud? If so, what did you do?

Ever hear of the Venturis that MiniMania sells to tack weld in the outlets if the Borla is too loud to tone down the sound? Has anyone actually done that?

I was going to send you a link to those pieces to tone down the system, but you already know about them... I would give them a call to see what they say! If you find anything out, let us know...

Sporty

If it's too loud, you're to old

It gets a bit loud if you have the rear seats lowered or the rear tray removed. I turn on the radio and step on the gas, Life's good!

I have a Borla Sport. Yes it is one of the loudest aftermarket systems you can buy, but I still don't think it is that bad. I think is sounds awesome.
