Default B&B Triflow?
How many on the forum run this catback? I just picked one up and have'nt installed it yet I wanted to know how good was it and will I notice a difference in the car's performance?

I have B&B PRTs on my Vette. They sound great. I wouldn't go so far as to say it made any appreciable difference in performance. Perhaps F-bodies are different.

I think they are good quality. They look great and sound great. Not the best for performance though.

In relation to what?

If you were looking for the best gain per dollar then you didn't do enough research.
B&B isn't known for the best flow out there, some people argue it's quite restrictive.
I purchased mine for sound and looks. The tips are the nicest I've seen.

Keep the exhaust, pick up an electric cutout and be done with it.

B&B has the Best tips ever!! Not the best flowing muffler though. The spintech is not much better either. Both sound awesome though. If you want to change the muffler for performance, the Magnaflow is a great flowing muffler, because its a straight through design.
