Hehe, Woman

No its understandible, I'd look into Corsa before B&B, way better tips than B&B. Although they do quote 42 ft/lbs gained to the wheels just by adding their catback LOL Plus I like Corsa's sound better than B&B. The Corsa will probably be a bit quieter than the GMMG, but also higher pitched from what I have heard.

Re: Does anyone have the b&b triflow?

A friend had a B&B on his 00 SS before he sold it. I liked the sound, but it was a bit to high pitched for me. Like someone stated before, it has an exotic sound to it that sounds good, but for an american muscle car, I gotta have some rumble.

The only complaint about his exhaust was that he could NEVER get the tips level, even look at the picture at the beginnning of the thread, the tips are higher on one side than the other. No matter what my friend did, he never did get the tips level. I still see the car running around town ( he sold it to an older lady) and the tips are still uneven. Other than that it was a good exhaust.

I have LT's, ORY, and GMMG on my car. It is a bit louder than stock at idle, but anything above that, you can tell its got something done to it. At WOT it just SCREAMS!!!!!! God I love it. But it is a bit loud.

Which is why I love this exhaust so much. Highway cruising and idle its reasonable. But on average acceleration it sounds mean and at WOT its absolutely insane and I LOVE IT. I cant wait to see what it sounds like with the H/C setup, oh baby!

Re: Does anyone have the b&b triflow?

i've had b&b for almost 5 years now and if you like a smooth deep burble and an LT1 that sounds like few others make no mistake it's the king of LT1 catbacks. i did a year of research and listening to other owners cars before buying and the three top contenders were Borla, Corsa and BB.

the borla sounded too metallic and loud and the one-pipe only thing with the block off plates did not impress. tips weren't the nicest either.

the corsa was least impressive with price being more than all the others and the sound was waaayy too blatty and raspy. they do have some awesome tips though.

b&b was clearly the best in terms of sound, awesome tips and quality. low deep muscular burble about 20% louder than stock, and no resonance whatsoever inside the car. rich race-car like notes at high rpm. you will not be dissapointed with this system. few have it and you will be one of the few with such a unique sounding LT1.

Re: Does anyone have the b&b triflow?

Yea I know, it sounds almost like stock. But I think B&B muffler is better than SLP.. But I just think, I don't know thats why I ask.

i don't know if its better or not to me i wouldn't give $5 for the B&B because the tips look like crap.

I'm not interested with tips. I can change the tips its not important. B&B's deep and quiet sound impress me. If there is no power difference between Borla I want to get it.

Re: Does anyone have the b&b triflow?


The GMMG also has a nice unique sound but is way too LOUD for me.

I should have said the GMMG is too noisey for me.

Here is a wav file of my car with the Borla
and one with the GMMG

I get a lot of Blat Blat Blat with the GMMG when accelerating hard.

that's laughable......9 out of 10 conclude that corsa and b&b have the best looking tips.

Re: Does anyone have the b&b triflow?

The B&B is probably the nicest cat back you can buy, but it is pricey. I knew a guy with one and he bought directly from B&B in Phoenix and had them install it. I guess they dynoed it afterwards on thier chassis dyno and it gained like 18hp, or so he says. B&B does claim some pretty crazy increases though.
