B&B (Billy Boat) exhaust. Stainless Steel.



Regarding the color on yours...My Corsa's look exactly the same. They started out shiney like the pic above and changed with heat. Corsa's are Stainless Steel as well.

I think you should stop worrying about Ti C4 exhaust that has never existed, and start worrying about that spring.

Hmmmm.......thats just crazy about it not being magnetic and being stainless steel. I did see that It was probably the B&B setup without the center muffler...Its a complete dual exhaust. I have been polishing it up since I did that one spot and it looks nice. It just seemed to look identical to the Ti exhaust on m GSXR. So it was just a wymmm. Like I first said, I just keep finding out new things about the car all the time. So why does the metal turn like that? And cool so fast?

what part of the exhaust are you touching when you say "it's cool"?

Plugged up cats would make the exhaust cooler.

Post a WTB in the C4 parts section, contact the forum used parts
vendors (Vette2Vette & Gene's - bottom left in the Sponsored Ads)
and talk to Patty/Pattie here at VB&P.

Your spring will have a 3 letter code embossed in it - this is the clue
as to what you'll base your replacement decision on. A search here
will lead to threads that have discussions about spring codes. Be
cautious about accepting recommendations for spring rates that are
a great deal different than OEM unless you know what to expect
as far as handling changes.
