Yes, I installed this product last month on 2015 5.0 6spd gt...highly recommend the product. My car had 1100 miles so wanted, for the time to stay close to stock but hated the muted stock sound. Love the new sound and throttle response right around 4k and up. Install really straight forward as well. Nice job Borla!

Love mine, but it leaks at the rear connections. Leaves little black water puddles on my garage floor when I let it sit while idling. I've got the clamps clocked per instructions and tightened beyond the specified torque, but still leaks.

I have not noticed any leaks so far. Also the shop who did the work didn't say anything either...the rest of exhaust and car are stock with like 1400 miles. I'd talk to Borla and see if they have any thoughts.

So as to follow up on my previous post and video with open exhaust...I have added Redline360 3" UHP GESI cats now and it sounds awesome. I also picked up torque and hp throughout curve. The two graphs show the previous dyno tune with suitcase and the new dyno tune with SwitchFire. It is also got a dB measurement for those who care to know.

Any success (or, hopefully not, failure) stories on making the cut on the exhaust pipe? Seen lots of recommendations for using a sawzall but worried about deforming (might that be the source of Chester's leak) and a non-square cut. Seen mixed success with the chain type exhaust cutters and not sure I want to spend the $80 on 2.5" SS tube cutter that I'll only use once. Greatly appreciate any suggestion / recommendations.

BTW - this is for the Borla switchfire x-pipe going on my son's 2020 active exhaust GT.

I paid to have Bridgehampton Autosport do the switchfire install. Zero issues, love the sound, throttle response (small but noticable). Justin runs the shop and his phone is 631 237 1111. They're busy but he might give you a heads-up...He will remember Bill's Mustang a couple of months ago. Good luck.

I used the chain type hand cutter. Can get for free from any auto parts store that does tool loans. I put car on jack stands slide under and hand cut mine ...took about 10 mins per pipe. Perfect cut ..looks factory made. The sawsall method... the gas tank is right there and also does not make a good cut at all. The hand cutter chain tool works and works good but eat your wheaties cause takes a bit of hand strength.

Anyone install one of these with an aftermarket axleback?

Brian I have this xpipe and will be running Ford Racing extreme axle back. Will report.

This last photo give an idea of ground clearance after the install. So far, so good. Gave it the speed bump test at Home Depot and Lowe's.

I too have Ford Performance extreme axle backs but currently with a H-pipe, sounds great now. Was wondering what extremes will sounds like with the Borla Switch, you install yet?

Not yet, went with suspension first. Car just sat to high and I went with the FRPP Track Kit. Mufflers are next.
