Post Stainless Steel Exhaust for '86 951

I'm shopping for an exhaust for my '86 951, What's out there that bolts from the cat back and provides a hp increase. Also good throaty sound is important too along with the "cool-looking-tip" factor.

B&B. I have one and love it.

If I were to do it again, I would get one from SFR

Ditto on the B&B. I have one with test pipe and the car sounds awesome.

I was looking at the SFR cat back exhaust, looks promising. Anybody have experience with this set up?

SFR is having a 10% of sale on all there products. I plan on getting there 3" cat back for my car, as I already have the 3" testpipe I got from Huntley (which I will never deal with again). They sent my testpipe to the wrong address than claimed that I had when I didn't(long story).

I've seen some of the SFR cat-back systems and it's a top-quality item. John Anderson have always been one of my favorite tuners. Willing to break existing limits with creative experimentation that leads to innovative products. I always thought his creativity was stiffled by Huntley and it's good to have him on his own again. The quality of craftsmanship that Tim produces is top-notch as well. Can't go wrong with these guys!

What kind of $ are we talking about for the SFR B&B? How much of a P in the A is it to swap out the muffler?

Nah, the whole cat-back exhaust takes about 5-10 minutes to install. SFR currently on sale for about $400, B&B is about $650? Fabspeed and Borla's pretty pricey also. Not much difference in performance between any of them, go for the SFR!!!
