I installed the Borla Atak Cat Back today. I just wanted to share my results. I was very impressed by the quality of the kit and the hardware. It fit on my 2015 like a glove and the sound is pretty rowdy at cold start up and when you hammer on the go pedal. The price is a little on the high side but is it a very nice kit and installs easily.

Nice. Did you do the carbon tips?

I also installed the ATAK on my car this past week and I am really enjoying it. I had a Corsa Sport catback on prior to this.

IMO this is worth every penny. It's deep in the low and mids, super aggressive, and screams up top. The starts make me smile again. I'm extremely impressed with this exhaust because it's both deeper and louder than the Corsa Sport, but it's actually even better on interior volume. Absolutely zero drone, and not at all boomy in the cabin with the windows up. There's plenty of bass note when accelerating, but it's all from behind you and not an annoying resonance typical of cheaper systems. The unique tuning of the multicore tubes in this ATAK is even more effective than the Corsa RSC, as they didn't have to make it higher pitched to create no drone.

No its just the stainless tips. Also id like to add that EVERYTHING on this kit is stainless, even the hangers.
As stated above its not "tinny" sounding like some kits make our cars sound. It has a deep note and then a " holy $hut" sound when you mat the gas.

I've been running the Borla Catback Atak kit for about 6 months and I'd say it's about perfect. Very nice sound, zero drone. But definitely rowdy when you are rowing through the gears. A real head turner.

I also got an ATAK cat back with black chrome tips put on last month. Fit and finish are top notch and the sound is amazing at any RPM. I have gotten multiple thumbs up and comments about how awesome the car sounds too. Worth every penny!

I am also running the Borla ATAK on my 2018 GT PP1 M6, and I am very impressed by it! It's worth the higher price tag.

I love the ATAK system. It is exactly what I was looking for with this car. BMac summed it up nicely.

The only time I feel bad about it is when I am in my gym's parking garage and setting off car alarms even keeping the rpms really low lol

Lol I’m with ya on the neighbors. They’ve got their quirks that annoy me too so an Atak cold start is my gift to them in return
