a guy in my local club wants to trade mufflers with me.

i have standard two chamber flows with dumps.

he has borla side exhaust mufflers, but sold the side pipes so i would have to have some made.

performance wise, which is a better set up.

The fact that he sold the side pipes discourages me. I figure if he is coming to me wanting what I HAVE, then I SHOULD get the better end of the deal.

Im not feeling the trade so far but what do you all think?

if i go ahead with the trade, this is how i want my tips.

ha, nice choice for the look
But i wouldn't buy used borla side exhuast mufflers. If you choose to do that set up you wont need that design anyway, considering the inlet and outlet on borla's mufflers are on the same end so it turns around. If you go my route you wont need to make a U bend. I just bought some magnaflow oval tips and magnaflow cylindrical resonator. Sounds awsome

BTW in that pic it's after i smogged my car and reinstalled my x-pipe so the driver side pipes are about 1 1/2-2" too close to the rear.
This is how it's looks after i adjusted it:
