BORLA® engineers developed an awesome 2.5 diameter performance Cat-Back™ system for the Mazda 3. Many were nervous when Mazda elected to replace the popular Protégé with the Mazda 3, but the resulting vehicle was a homerun. The '04-'09 Mazda 3 is a great 4-door with an excellent power package in the 2.3L 160 horsepower engine and performance handling suspension straight off of the Mazda 6. The system has a super look, sound and performance. Designed to work with both automatic and stick shift transmissions, this performance exhaust upgrade is lighter than stock and has 14% better air flow which generates solid performance gains through the entire dyno RPM graph. The system features the classic S-Type sound with no drone inside the vehicle, and a 4 round polished T-304 stainless steel tip.

You may be asking yourself if Borla is worth the cost. Well to ease your mind we are here to tell you that every Borla Cat-Back System, Borla Header and Rear Section Exhaust is constructed of aircraft-quality authenticate stainless steel and is stainless inside and out and utilizes T-304 stainless steel because it is the most resistant to corrosion culminating in a long-lasting and resilient exhaust system.
The Borla exhaust system & Borla Muffler are less restrictive and preserve the velocity and high frequency so the dominant sound is behind the tailpipe where it belongs. And if you are looking for loud then the ATAK system will give you the highest decibel levels. And Borla’s patented, less restrictive design means greater horsepower and gas savings.
