Was kinda hoping to have on before next weekend. Oh well-Josh waited for us-I can wait for Josh.

I cannot wait for this to show up on my doorstep. Patiently waiting has given way to racing home every day to check the front porch.

I'm sure Josh will be PM'ing tracking numbers to those that are receiving them first. That's when the anticipation really hits.

They are custom made mufflers for our system. They are hand built.

I'm pretty sure BB makes the exhaust but I dont know if they actually manufacture the mufflers.

On the other hand, that is a good question and I think only Josh can answer this. Josh, would you comment on this please.

Without making an ASS out of U and ME, I would ASSUME that Billy Boat does the whole thing. That's the impression I got...

Doesn't matter who makes the god damn thing to me all that matters is there are good gains, great quality and great sound.
Now we just need these things to ship already.

BB manufacturers the mufflers specifically for our system.

Thanks for specifying that. My boy had a B&B exhaust on his GTI 20th and it sounded sick. Great quality stuff.

That is a stage 3 exhaust. It gets closer to a G35, but the G35 is a distinct sound. Just use search and listen to the videos.

Now I'm getting uncomfortable. Tomorrow is 5 weeks, not the 2-3 weeks with 3-5 days shipping! What is the status!?

I dont doubt it's a well built exhaust. Just sucks when someone tells you 2-3 weeks and then its been 5. I know problems or setbacks arise and its very understandable, just sucks when your waiting everyday.

I want this badass exhaust on my car now. It's been hell waiting, specially since Josh said that those who didn't get the GB, the exhaust was in stock.

Just sucks when someone tells you 2-3 weeks and then its been 5.

What is the reason for the delay?

I apologize for the delay but keep in mind we're trying to produce 10-15 exhausts. I had estimated about 3-4 weeks for fabrication so we're about a week behind. Unfortunately, the fabricator had some delays but they're working hard on to finish all the exhausts. I'm expecting to have tracking #'s for every order within the week.
