Default exhaust

Hey Guys,

I have a billy boat exhaust on my 01 coupe 6 speed. It is about a year old and was installed on the car by the last owner....I want to change it because it does not have the quad tips and the drone inside is just a little too much.... Does anyone have suggestions as to what exhaust (with the quad tips) would be good. Also is there a market for the billy boat exhaust to sell? any help would greatly be appreciated..

thanks
sal

I see billy boats sold at online auction sites and this forum for $500-800 pretty frequently.

As for other exhaust, there's about 10 different options. Billy Boats are pretty much the loudest exhaust out there except for straight pipes. I'm cheap, so I would just peruse the for sale forum and auction sites till I found a good deal.

I had a Billy Boat Bullet on my car but the drone was a bit much. I went with the Magnaflow system and I love it! I also have a Magnaflow X pipe on the car which I had installed with the B&B system.
