Love it.
I talked to Mike Boat about oval mufflers and the round can mufflers. He sent me the ovals which don't hang down. I prefer them to the round cans.
Mike is sometimes hard to get a hold of but he was very helpful!

This is the exact set-up I had been considering, so your info and video have been very helpful. Thank you!
Did you end up with the "ceramic coated" ARH headers? I'm still debating the cost difference.

Your welcome I am glad I could help, my ARH headers are uncoated. The stainless has held up well with just the usual darker bronze look. No heat issues under hood!

Your welcome, glad I can help. The Corvette forum for the most part is very informative.
I went for a long morning ride today and I am very pleased with the B&B Fusion. The sound is killer backing off the throttle and hearing the burbles and little pops. Music to my ears in loud mode. Quiet mode keeps the pops and burbles muted but still more aggressive than stock.

Perhaps B&B should focus solely on selling the Fusions and issue them to customers with the regular Tri-flos. Because they seem to be the best of both worlds loud or quiet when you want with minimal drone.

Man I’d love a b&b upgrade option as well. Mine are shot after 20 years and a poor original install
