  • Aftermarket exhaust problem

    I purchased and had installed the Borla V6 catback exhaust system 4 months ago. About a month ago it started to make a very loud bang noise as soon as I accelerated very fast through first and second gear. If anyone has any ideas what is causing the noise I would appreciate it.

      The bang is coming from right under the front and rear seats. It sounds like if someone were to throw a rock at the undercarrage.

        could be a clogged cat, fuel getting caught up in there and backfiring, or not scavenging exhaust out of the cylinder and causing it to back fire... another thought is it may not be exhaust related, it could be a broken tranny mount, does it only do it when you gun it and on the 1-2 shift? it's a definite possibility
