    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum.

If we have ten real commitments (in the next 7 days), I'm going to need y'all's contact information if we go through with this and they accept:

Borla Perfomance Industries, Inc.
Part #11965 = Borla Exhaust for 2020-2021 Kia Telluride
Oxnard, CA

I might also need y'all to sign or digitally sign a Group Purchase Agreement if this thing is a go.

Minimum quantity: 10 Borla exhausts (if there's enough interest for 15 or 17 or whatever, we can raise the quantity demanded)

Price: $300.00 USD out-the-door, including tax, up to $330.00 USD if they include Oxnard+CA total sales taxes + standard ground shipping.

Please feel free to agree, disagree, discuss, debate and leave all comments, critiques and feedback below.

I will try to get in touch with them perhaps as soon as Monday/Tuesday next week and make an initial offer of $300 USD for 10+ exhausts and gauge their response.

The big question: at the price range indicated above, are you in? :)

2 so far (including me).

I'm only going to go to them if 10 of us are in.

Please select a poll option and then add a comment in the thread indicating you're in.
 
Me want Borla
Me want Borla too.

We're at 3/10 (y)

Borla’s website has two different choices when you select 2021 Telluride: (S, SX) and (EX). But they have the same part number for both... and someone on here bought and installed one on his LX (not sure 20 or 21), so we know it works for all versions (he had to cut the bumper slightly for the tips to fit).

Same choices for 2020 as well.

Any idea why?

If you believe this guy, if you don't drivel like a maniac and drive normal, he claims you can see 1 to 1.5 MPG increase in fuel economy. I'm in - but my question is - could you clarify this:

Price: $300.00 USD out-the-door, including tax, up to $330.00 USD if they include Oxnard+CA total sales taxes + standard ground shipping.

Does that mean I would pay $300 PLUS shipping Cost (so, if shipping was $65, I'd pay total of $365)? But if they include taxes I would pay $330 PLUS shipping?

With me we have 6 so far.
 
Even at $390 including shipping and taxes I think that’s still a good price. But if you can get it lower that would be the most ideal. Still count me in. 👍

Sounds good.

We can accept their offer if we have 25 in and someone feels comfortable about a group bank account...but as always, we don't have to take their first offer and can make a counter-offer with terms more favorable for us.

I'm willing to $300-$330.

If we can do 10 exhausts @ $330, there better be Oxnard/CA taxes and/or ground shipping included.

If they want to stick us with CA tax + shipping, I'd only be comfortable at $300 because CA is crazy expensive and increased the tax rate from 7.75% to 9.25% earlier this month.

Borla has every right to laugh in our faces and reject our proposed group purchase, but we can then either meet somewhere in the middle or accept their first offer.

This kind of thing happens every day.

It's just business.

Okay, so 7/10 are in 😋

Who else wants in?

I'll take our counter-offer to Borla and see what they say if we can get three more
"in" before the weekend ends :)

In the meantime, happy Sport Mode Saturday !!

Imagine how much better they'll sound with the Borlas if we can make this happen :)

What we need is some other exhaust company like Gibson to get into the game. Right now Borla is the only one in town. I personally will not be getting an exhaust for the Telluride. I Have a Gibson cat back on my truck and it was about the same price as Borla’s axle back for the Kia.
 
done now sir!

@ashuride:

Excellent !!

9/10

Anyone else in? ☝️🥳

I’m actually working in Oxnard tomorrow through Tuesday and will be taking a few days off to Sport Mode Wednesday and Thursday. Camarillo is the next town over so I’m not far from the ‘Nard.

Hopefully we can pick up one or more “in” so that I can drop off an group purchase offer/proposal to one or more soon-to-be friends at Borla HQ this week 🥳
 
I posted a link on SoCal Telly Facebook group. Hopefully we get more interest.

Thanks man, have them sign-up for an account here, click yes, and also add a reply so that I can contact them, if they’re interested in the group purchase offer ☝️

Does anyone know if installing Borla exhaust voids warranty?
