  • What's a Borla and COPS?

    in my on-going effort to display my ignorance and amuse and delight members of this forum I just have to ask what these things are.

    I'm no gearhead. I just really like the way the new Birds look.

    John,
    Borla is a catback exhaust system.
    COP stand for Coil Over Plug.

    Place either COP or Borla into the search engine at the top and you will find all the information you need to know about both. You might want to pay special attention to the COP threads.

      John, familiarize yourself with the search function above and you'll find a wealth of info.
      Just type in a word or phrase and you'll have more than you need to answer your questions... In fact, try Borla and you'll be surprised at what you find.

        It's simple John. The Borla's are related to fun, the COP's are not.

          Tried the search and gots lots of threads but still wasn't sure what it (Borla) was. After Frits' post went to the Borla website - that's the sound I want. There's a dealer nearby too. Thanks all. My ignorameter just dropped a notch!

            John, don't feel like the Lone Ranger....We all started out the same way. But you have found the site with people more than willing to help answer your questions.

              And don't forget, COPS come with robbers (the mechanics).

                Contact Julie first (Borla Babe) her price is significantly lower. Plus, I'm not sure 2002's are available any more.

                      John, I hope for your sake you never hear the word COPS much less experience the pain on your wallet especially owning a 2002 ...

                        Sounds like some leg pullin' going on. I may be ignorant but not... well, you get my drift.

                          It is absolutely true... the addition of a trunk mat, if installed correctly, will give you a huge performance edge.

                            My car is exactly opposite. Mine is much quicker when the trunk mat is removed.

                              Less weight, goes faster, makes sense to me.
