Message SHRUG. If i'm gonna buy a one THOUSAND dollar exhaust, it shouldnt have one performance feature (ie, flow). It should be the end all, be all exhaust.
You just changed your tune - we where talking about MUFFLERS ie SOUND, now you want to talk about flow

It should perform well, and be quiet too. (to prevent police on lookers).
1/2 opinion 1/2 true

I can match the performance AND looks of the B&B exhuast for roughly $400.oo using off the shelf bits.
No you cant, and labor comes @ a price as well.

For one THOUSAND US DOLLARS, the B&B does not perform well.
Opinion

You can get open exhuast pipes made for $40.oo and match the SOUND and PERFORMANCE of B&B.
False

As for his "custom" set up all I remember about it was that he wasn't happy w. it when I asked him about it @ Zcon.
I don't recall that. When I had dynoed, I had low numbers. I was assuming it was the exhaust. But my latest dyno (1 month ago) proves otherwise. (330/360 at 11.5 to 12psi)
I am happy with my exhaust for what I paid for it. No different then Kuhmo tires. For the price, you cannot beat the bang for the buck.
Your bang for buck =/= mine, even though I have Kuhmos as well. You never detailed your cars issues to me after that all I knew was that you suspected issues w, the exhaust.

Best of all, I can hear myself fart in my car. I'm willing to sacrifice 5 to 10 rwhp to hear my farts.
and so?/

A Quiet **AND** fast car is much more impressive then a REALLY loud and fast car. It's even more impressive then a really loud and slow car. (ie V6 mustangs).
opinion

AND the B&B has 2 substantial bends on each pipe. Substantial.
Not really
