BORLA ATAK TECHNOLOGY

**What Makes ATAK Different?**

Borla’s engineers developed ATAK technology to solve a common problem: most loud exhausts sound distorted or raspy at high volume. ATAK systems are tuned like a graphic equalizer, shaping and focusing sound waves to deliver maximum volume while maintaining clarity and depth [citation:1].

The result is an exhaust that:
– 🔊 Produces the highest decibel levels in Borla’s street-legal lineup [citation:1] – 🔊 Delivers a deep, aggressive tone without annoying rasp or distortion
– 🔊 Eliminates drone during highway cruising
– 🔊 Gets louder and more aggressive as RPMs climb

“The distance from the exhaust manifold to the rear bumper, the shape of the underbody shielding, the amount of ground clearance, all these factors affect the sound, and they’re different on each vehicle. With ATAK we take all this into account, and the result will blow you away.” – David Borla, VP of Sales & Marketing [citation:1]
