Then you're out of luck, no two systems from different manufacturers are the same. What you have now won't work with just the rear section on the Borla system.
So let me get this straight... you have a custom setup from the downpipe back to the end of the car to just a Magnaflow muffler? Why do you need three resonators?
Maybe if you post a pic or two under your car we can understand your setup a little better.

Im wondering if they offer an axle back for borla? Would this create the same sound as a catback? I know it wouldnt be as loud, but im looking into only a axle back..

Installed the borla, problem is a fat leak after my midpipe. The test pipe I have is big compared to the borla cbe midpipe. So the gasket doesn't cover it completely. Sorta confused on why there is such a mismatch, but I will figure it out tomorrow. It is super loud, and any throttle just makes it louder. When I look underneath its easy to see the leak, I sprayed lubricant around it to see where it was leaking and it was spurting out pretty bad.
Did anyone else have this problem?
Will a shop replace the gasket cheap?
Any help is nice, thanks.

You can buy liquid gakset, that's what i did when my tsudo 3" testpipe did not fit perfect with my 2.75" midpipe. I coated the flange like crazy with it, let it cure for 10 hrs or so. It's been fine for a few months so far. There was a noticable decrease in how loud my car was too.

Post a pic of exactly what's wrong. I never had any issues installing mine.

I take it you have a 3" test pipe? I can see it might causing a slight issue with the 2.75" Borla piping, but not enough to cause that much of a leak. I'd start off by getting a new gasket first, make sure it's a 3" gasket instead of the OEM size, that might be your problem. Also make sure the bolts are tightened properly.
