Are those the standard tips? Or different ones? It looks great!

Sweeeeet looking exhaust, Ray! :thumbsup:
How's the drone(resonance) in 6th @ less than 2k rpm?

How difficult was it to install? Sorry for the Q's I'm just making a list for the future.:o
:cheers:

Easy to install less than an hour, hardest part was getting the mufflers lined up. The car in 6th under 2 k will rattle your teeth. You can hear it 1/4 mile away.:mrgreen:

Hey Ray. Looks nice. I put mine on my 90 several months ago......group purchase at TByrne. I did resonator instead of X pipe hoping for less resonance, but got plenty at highway speed anyway. I have had a tough time keeping the tips from twisting out of alignment though. I have cranked down on the clamps until I twisted one bolt off, and B & B sent me another right out. They suggested tack welding to eliminate the slip. Not crazy about that, but will if there are no other options. You have any problems with that?

I had my tips welded on at BNB when I ordered it.
Thanks

I should have been more specific, sorry. Not the tips actually that is the problem, it is the first joint in front of the mufflers that is clamped. The pipe actually slips and twists some which causes that whole tail end section of muffler and tip assy. to twist out of parallel. Looks bad. B & B suggested tack welding at the pipe joint to prevent that.

I Have B & B's on mine and they twisted also, the problem is the crummy clamps they use I put these on and BINGO the problem went away. You wont be sorry, and you dont have to weld.

GREAT!!!!:handshak: Will Order these today. Looks similar to the "newstyle" clamps that were provided, but with the double bolt setup I am sure that will make a huge diff.
THANKS!!!

Great & informative post, worthy of your first reputation points. Anyone who benefits from your post should award you some additional points since many of us have a B&B system.

A few pictures of them installed would be great:thumbsup:

Looks awesome and I like those tips also. :thumbsup: I have not seen too many White Zs also and that is sweet too. I did not have any twist problems with mine and used the clamps B & B sent, nothing worst that some crooked tips/mufflers from the rear view.
