Thinking of buying a new exhaust system



I want something a bit more aggressive sounding than my stock system. Not tracking the car so has to be street friendly. My friend suggested getting a B&B system (One of the lower priced options?). Any other ideas I should consider? Would definitely consider a used system as well if someone has a great deal. Thanks.

Ruiner is right. Do not buy the B&B GT System. However, I've had the LeMans system on for over three years. Never had a CEL or a cracked weld. Fitment was good. Nice deep sound that is louder than stock, but not obnoxious. Oh yeah, no resonance. Installed it myself. Less than $2K.

For a Cab would you recommend the Euro II Quiet?

I am looking for performance first & then sound "deep rumble with no drone". Opinions?

I would recommend against the Tubi if drone and resonance bothers you. I have a Tubi that I picked up and I don't really care for it. It really drones and resonants with the sunroof and windows closed.

I found a one month old fabspeed medium from 6speed for $2K, great deal. At higher rpm and WOT, it sounds amazing and aggressive. There is clearly a loud resonance around 2200-2800 rpm that takes a little getting used to. If that doesn't bother you, I believe it makes the most power of all the aftermarket exhausts. correct me if i'm wrong

Get the Cargraphic Super Sound Export version. BEST sounding exhaust bar none. No resonance and was tested to make just as much power as the Fab. No offense to anyone, but the Fab sounds like **** in both versions. Europipe is heavy and mine at least had WAY more resonance than the Cargraphic and wasn't very loud on the outside, only the drone on the inside.

Here again are some exhaust clips of my Cargraphic exhuast.

Be sure to right click, "save copy as", and save to your desktop. Play the video from there or they will appear choppy and won't sound right:
