You posted that you've had the B&B now for about 7,000 miles.
Have you noticed if the tone has changed any?

If anything it is getting a bit quieter?granted some of that is me getting used to it?but beyond that, on start-up especially, I could swear that it is more mellow

Sounds VERY nice. Definitely louder than my Eisenmann which is ideal for what I personally wanted.

Have you noticed any change in volume between a cold engine and having driven around for some time ?
I noticed mine is definitely louder when hot, most noticeably at idle.

For those who asked my system is very new with less than 1000 miles.
Still drive to work with windows down and stereo off

(except on fwy section)

Rody,

Did you order your B&B?? Seems like you have your mind set.

Also, does the Eisenmann and B&B exhaust start after the catalytic converter?? Or is it just a muffler and tip replacement?

I have not ordered it yet, but I am going to call the place that Chi-Town Racing posted above. They sell it for less than both BAV AUTO and B&B direct, and they are in Irvine, so hopefully they will allow me to pay for and pick up the exhaust in person.

Both the Eisenmann and the B&B are basically just replacement mufflers (see pics).

Didn't really pay attention to it before, but what's up with the pipe before the muffler not having a flange (on both mufflers)? Is a flange unnecessary in this application?

I was intending on doing this myself since it appeared to be a bolt-on job.
