Borla Exhaust Control Valve Kit
Borla 60605 Exhaust Control Valve Kit Dual Mode Dual Split Rear Exit
Engineered Valve Solutions for Modern Active Exhaust Systems
Borla's Exhaust Control Valve Kits represent the brand's commitment to bringing factory-level active exhaust technology to custom and aftermarket systems. Designed to convert custom exhaust systems without the necessary valves to add the NPP for dual mode application, these kits allow enthusiasts to retrofit dual-mode exhaust functionality into Borla systems that didn't originally include valves. This is particularly valuable for vehicles equipped with factory dual-mode exhaust controls, ensuring seamless integration with the vehicle's existing cockpit controls.
What sets Borla's approach to exhaust control valve kits apart is the brand's engineering philosophy. Engineers spent years testing and refining an improved premium design to ensure these valves can handle the demands of high-flow performance exhaust systems. Crafted of stainless steel, the control valve kit is durable and very rust-resistant, maintaining the same corrosion-resistant T-304 stainless steel construction found throughout Borla's product line.
NPP Valve Integration and Performance Benefits
The primary application for Borla's Exhaust Control Valve Kits is adding NPP (Noise Performance Package) functionality to systems lacking these components. These pipes include valves and are intended to add the NPP (dual mode option) to a system that did not come with the necessary valves, specifically designed for use with Borla Cat-Back and Axle-Back systems that feature dual-tip muffler configurations. This allows drivers to retain factory-style exhaust mode switching, transitioning between quiet, civilized operation for daily driving and more aggressive sound when performance is desired.
Manufactured in the USA under rigorous standards, Borla valves are tuned and optimized to maximize the performance and sound of our exhaust systems, ensuring they don't compromise the flow characteristics or acoustic signature that Borla exhausts are known for. The valves integrate with factory actuators and wiring harnesses, though installation typically requires welding for proper fitment. Designed with valves to add dual mode option to systems without the necessary valves, unnotched for easier weld-on installation, these kits provide professional installers with the flexibility needed for secure, permanent mounting.
Warranty Coverage and Application Specifics
While Borla's exhaust systems are backed by their famous Million-Mile Warranty, BORLA will warranty BORLA catalytic converters, black tips and all moving parts, such as valves and actuators, for three years. This reflects the mechanical nature of valve components, which experience more wear than static exhaust piping. Applications range from late-model Chevrolet Camaros with factory dual-mode exhaust to other performance vehicles where factory active exhaust systems are present.
It's important to note that Borla's Exhaust Control Valve Kit is not intended to add NPP to vehicle's not originally equipped with one, meaning these kits work best on vehicles that came from the factory with valve-controlled exhaust systems. The valve kits enable Borla exhaust owners to maintain full functionality of their vehicle's factory drive mode selectors, sound controls, and exhaust settings while enjoying the performance and sound benefits of a premium aftermarket system.
