I wonder how close will they sound and flow to Borla Pro XS or XR mufflers.
Nice work.

Here's a short video clip from yesterday. They sound as good as they look!

Leonard, it is a special very high heat paint intended for usage on indoor stoves/furnaces. It is good stuff!
BigBlock, typical Borlas are packed with st. st. materials; these are packed with a ceramic fiber that absorbs more sound energy and as such, they will be quieter and will also have a less raspy tone. They are larger than typical Borlas that fit this chassis so they will be quieter due to this extra volume I built into them. Thank you for the nice comments.

I'm running a pair of Borla Pro XS on my 318 Dart, along with fulllength Dougs Headers, a 2.5" mandrell X-pipe and tailpipes to the end.
They rumble nice and quiet at idle, but get just a bit too loud nearing 2000rpm with some throttle.
Once off the throttle they're fine again.
I can also think maybe the X-pipe made the mufflers sound more louder and monotone now, instead of a more alternate, stereo sound like with seperate exhaust pipes.
Then again, my ('73) Dart is fairly loud inside and I may need to do some more sounddeadening in the drivers compartment.
I chose the Borlas because they were offered under halfprice to me and they flow as one of the best out there I recall.
