B&B exhaust
Any cons to going with B&B route 66 exhaust over Borla or Corsa?
I have LG long tubes and I think I going to remove my cats and install a set of B&B axle back muffles.
Does anyone have dyno #'s with and without cats??

Several have reported the drone increases a fair bit when combining the 66s and headers. Outside of the corsa this is true of all of them though so I think your pretty much stuck with drone if your not a corsa fan and want headers.

I had the RT66 system on my car for over a year with stock manifolds, but it started to drone too much for me once I added LG headers. On a few recommendations here, I bought the Magnaflow catback system to replace the B&B, and I'm very happy with it. It sounds just about identical to the RT66 system around town in the first few gears, but it has much less drone at highway speeds.

Just today Arizona Power and Sound installed my kooks in my 2007 Z51 MN6 which already had bullets with PRT. Took PRT out and now have X pipe and high flows cats. WOOOOOOOOOOOWWWW!!! LOUD! and heavy DRONE! But I LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!! Exactly what a "look at me car" deserves. I cannot wait for the morning to go on a long... long drive.

As I have stated before, I have heard LG's with several exhaust options. IMHO GHL's and LG's sound bad a$$. Not as loud as headers with B&B but has a very nice deep rumble!

LG's (or most any header) w/B&B are friggen loud!! You can expect to get some unwanted attn from the law. Just cut off your mufflers and weld on some tips!

Loud! I had bullets with PRT. 2 days ago had the headers (kooks) installed with x-pipe and high flow cats on my 07, z51, mn6. The PRT was not compatible so out it went. Again it is LOUD, but GREAT! Has deep rumbling and it screams when you step on it. It is a head turner... the sound of power!
