Houston Borla or B&B Exhaust

Does anyone in Houston have the B&B or Borla Exhaust? I would love to hear one in person.

I have the Borla on mine. I live in NW Houston (Jersey Village area) and work at the Williams tower (Galleria).

His 0 gage wire was cool but the speaker weight in his trunk made him look like he had replaced the rear springs and not the front ones.

Not trying to cause a scene but the deeper exhaust sound came off well.

James er... I mean Arnold!!!!!!!!!!!! I was wondering what your name was on here. Cool. Now I know who not to **** off! It didn't register when you said David. I don't know if he has a spring compressor or not. You can rent them for free with a refundable deposit though.

At the RX-8 meets several have heard my setup with the Borla cat-back with the random tech high flow cat and mid pipe.

Well, yesterday I had a 12 inch resonator (random tech) welded in the pipe leading into the borla.

I am much happier with this setup. It took out the raspy ricy sound and reduced droning by nearly 50%.

Not sure if I can make the next meet (wifes b-day). If anyone want's to here it I live and work in central Houston.

Ben
