I was at a car show this weekend and the vette behind me cranked up and it sounded unreal. I new it had to be a B&B but I asked anyway...it was. Ten minutes later I was ordeing a B&B with an X-pipe...can't wait for it to arrive! It was a toss up between the B&B and Corsa. I got the whole system brand new for $970 shipped to my house...is that good with the X pipe?

i have the borla mufflers,with the resonator removed,replaced it with an x pipe,and i removed the infamous restriction inside the borla tubes...felt a difference in performance,and the sound is very reasonable;could even be louder,i wouldnt mind didnt notice any resonance...maybe because i had a"65 vette with a 396,and sidepipes...now thats resonance !!

I have watson headers x pipe in place of resonator w/ flowmasters. love the sound, also very easy to find the sweet spot of rumble or quiet depending on choosing 5th or 6th gear. I just wish they looked as good as the B&B's. I also have electric cut outs if I want to really raise hell!

would love to buy a used set of B&B mufflers only, I have too much invested in x pipe & electric cut outs & B&B won't sell mufflers only!

I've had:

Stock
B&B
B&B with headers
Corsa
Desert Development

I like:
Corsa inside the car
B&B wt headers outside the car and on the track

My turbo car won't have mufflers, wonder what that's going to be like...

Robert,
What do you have planned? Let me know how much you want for them, how old are they and the condition.
Thanks,
Tracy
