B&B makes some of the best exausts on the market for MANY cars. I wouldnt be AT ALL surprised if they were a good amount better than the JDM stuff you all gawk at. porsche owners love B&B, and the gurgling sound is VERY unique, and has to be your thing.

B&B exhausts are crap. I used to sell exhausts for the M3, and the B&B was consistently the loudest and the poorest fitting. Plus, they use a janky chambered muffler which doesn't flow well but is pretty loud.

Usually, they sound good... they are just too loud to be useful. The S2000 B&B sounds pretty good, but there are other cheaper and better alternatives, like the fujitsubo.

Sounds like Banana Boat to me. Kinda gay if you ask me (not that there's anything wrong with that) That's enough to keep me from buying it though. Of course, the JDM names don't really sound good either. That's a story already told though.

At first glance, I thought the title of this thread was "Billy Goat Performance Exhaust".....

I've had B&B's on two previous cars (Vette's) and they were great, although not loud enough. I LIKE loud. They were beautifully made and fit better than others I've tried, including Borla and SLP. I went with Veilside for the S2k to save max weight. It's been great so far, but I would not dismiss the B&B because some think its loud. A fellow autocrosser recently got the Fugitsubo, and likes the tone of that, but I have not heard it to be able to offer a comparison. Good luck.
