Quad exhaust on 3.2c - thoughts?

I am looking at a borla quad tip exhaust for my 87 911.

Does anyone have pictures with it on the rear? My car is lowered slightly but otherwise stock looking and has no whale tale so I am wondering if it will look a bit out of place.

I would recommend if you do buy one, get a Ferrari to put it on. Or a Jag E-Type. Or a Pontiac Fiero.

I don't know what the Borla looks like but back in the day I used a 4 out Ansa on my '73, I liked it a lot

The borlas curve outward right where the rear bumper makes the 90 degree turn.. if you would basically add another chrome pipe next to a stock exhaust and mirror that on the passenger side that is how it looks.

I like the look of yours! I’m leaning towards no on the borla though. Just doesn’t seem to fit in back there.

Nice.

Here is another option for quad exhaust on a 3.2L.

I had an old Ansa quad tip back in the day, but supposedly they made less power than the factory original muffler.

This one had me in tears with laughter. I've seen race cutouts on one side, but both? Reminded me of the ridiculous exhausts on Berry Hollywood cars like the Munsters hotrod, or Batmobile.
