Default B&B Triflow Catback!

I got it installed to day and what a piece of ****. A waste of money my stock exhaust was louder than the B&B all I have to say is that I wasted my time and money in that piece of **** of a catback. I don't feel no power gains whatsoever the only power I feel is when my cutout is open other than that nothin. I will be selling the tips off of the B&B
CB they're in ok shape one has a couple dents I will take some pics of them towards the end of this week and post them in the for sale section looking to get 80 plus shipping

There was no way that your stock catback was louder, you were just probably expecting too much. I like the way it sounds...especially when you start modding more. Granted it will not make the best horsepower, but that is what your cutouts are for. By buddy had a B&B setup on his H/C car.......and it sounded great! He now has a LS6 and it still sounds really good. The exhaust looks great too. If you already have the money in it....just keep modding and "IT WILL GET LOUDER AND LOUDER"

same thing happened to me...only i have cam/headers and went from a loudmouth to a hooker catback. i had expected it to sound alot different and was severely disappointed at first. tough it out, and let someone else drive your car so you can follow them and see how it sounds from the outside, then itll grow on you. and of course more mods will make it louder

I think that the B&B is compareable to the Borla setup minus the plate

I'm not tryin to sell it I would'nt try to get another member to buy something that they're not gonna be happy with. The only things I'm selling is the dual tips that came with the catback the tips are the hottest thing about the exhaust. I'm with everyone that has a F-Body not against like most people.

Well, if you're not ever gonna get headers, I guess the B &B is a little too mellow. BUT, if you ever get headers, it will sound sweet, and is one of the least raspy sounding cat-back with headers and an ORY.
I know this because I got rid of my Borla, as it sounded like *** with headers, even with cats. I tried the Magnaflow catback, too raspy as well but less so than the Borla.
I got the B&B, it sounds great with heads, cam and headers, even with NO cats! No rasp and roars at WOT.

someone didnt do their research and now their pissed. why dont you sell it? somone who knows what they REALLY want will probably be happy and then you can go get what you like. Its all in difference of opinions.Dont hack up a great catback just sell it and buy something that sounds good with stock headers...i dont know why you would even comment on hp gains when you havent removed the other bottlenecks before the exhaust.

I agree. I have heard the catback before and I was impressed.
