I have just ordered the Borla (Dual) Catback system for my H2. Some people are saying that the Borla is extremely loud.
I am not looking for loud just increased performance. Does anyone know from experience what the difference is in noise levels between Corsa (Touring) and the Borla. Or have any other suggestions on a catback system that will not blow me out of the H2. I still have time to cancel my order.
Thanks in advance.

Have recommended My setup and still do. I went this way because of past experience and the backup recommendation of one of the better Perf. Shops near Me.
Dynatech stainless long neck catback system with true dual flowmaster supper 40 series mufflers and exhaust. I have the X pipe tieing 2 exhaust banks together. Sounds deep and loud when WOT and still deep at cruise but, quiets down nicely. I can run My sunroof open and windows down and sound is real nice. Do not have any complaints and get good feedback from everyone. If You have a good relationship with Exhaust shop You may try 50 series but I find these to soft. You could try just the 40 series and if You decide to go deeper and louder in sound Your exhaust shop should let You try another series. My shop did and are able to sell the other as it is still new.
Hope You get what makes You happy and not anyone else. That's what counts.
TAZ

Don't do it. I put the system in my truck and noticed the smallest of performance gains. REAL SMALL. At first the sound was cool and was great around town. Now after a year I regret the change. One of the best things about the H2 is that it can do almost anything and still have the luxury of a cadillac. After driving a friends H2 without the mods I know it was a mistake. If you really want performance, you can check the posts, a supercharger is the only way. To each his own, however I noticed your concern about noise and though I would give you my experiance.

I think Screeper made a good point for you. Really no performance gain and you will notice the sound.
