Borla Exhaust system for LS

[wkam]

Contacted Borla about their exhaust system for the LS. Their website includes their SEMA concept project LS car, the ESS (Executive Sports Sedan). This car has 255/35ZR20 BF Goodrich tires on 20 x 8 Enkeis. Yikes!
They gave me a distributor for the lowest price Borla Cat-Back exhaust system for the LS. Dason Auto Concepts in California @ 310-6777185. The price for the stainless steel kit is $623. Roughly around the same price I paid for my Flowmasters on my old TransAm.

But by getting the borla exhaust system, are you required to get some ground effects since the LS doesn't come with any holes for the exhaust pipes to come out of unless you want them to point down, but that would look stupid, and it would take away the look of the exhaust system itself.

From what I've seen for all other auto applications, Borla exhausts exit similar to stock. Sometimes the tips are finished nicer than stock, but they are ususally shaped very similarly. I doubt if the LS Borla setup is a bastard configuration that requires a unique valance. That would severely limit sales. Valences are usually designed to clear a stock configuration exhaust with clearance holes only if necessary (like '93 Mustang Cobra). If stock exhaust has turndowns, there are no clearance holes to display pipes (like '93 Mustang GT).

Well, from what I can tell, I think you have to purchase the Ground FX kit but you can see for yourself. The Kit Pics are here: http://www.razzi.com/specials.html#lincoln ls The price for the kit is right around $750.00 but that's without paint and labor which is another $545.00 but I thought that was extremely high. Maybe someone will come out with a replacement back end for the LS so that it is not necessary to purchase the whole kit.
