Anyone who is considering the Borla ATAK over the S-type for the loudness should reconsider. I just switched to the ATAK because I wanted something louder but still had tone. I didn't want a muffler delete. Been there, done that. Deletes have no tone. I searched Youtube vids and Googled "Borla ATAK vs S-type stinger" and couldn't really find any comparisons.
All I found were people saying the ATAK is louder (probably reading it online) but I really don't think these people ever had first hand experience. Anyway, after I installed the ATAK and started the car, I was surprised how quiet it was at idle compared to the S-type. Probably one notch lower on my imaginary sound meter. ;) It could be because I've broken in the S-type (ran for 1yr 2mo) and the S-type got louder over time. With the ATAK, cruising and WOT was about the same as the S-type.
The only difference that I could tell was that the ATAK has a slight burbling in its tone which I kind of like I guess. Was it worth shelling out $500+ for something louder? In this case, HELL NO! Kind of disappointed. Now I need to figure out if I want to keep the ATAK or sell it and switch back to the S-type. By the way, I'm running stock cats with a Pypes X-pipe, and Dynomax Race Bullets for resonators. The resonators have been on the car since way back when I had an O/R Prochamber. I was thinking if I got rid of the resonators then maybe it would make it a bit louder since they basically muffle sound too. Hmmm
