Billy Boat Exhaust
Billy Boat Exhaust Headers, Exhaust Systems, Mid-Pipes, Mufflers and Tips
Since 1989, Billy Boat Exhaust has designed, tested, and manufactured the highest quality stainless steel exhaust systems available. Originally specializing in Porsche 911 performance exhaust systems, oil coolers, and intercoolers, B&B introduced the Tri-Flo line named after its unique 3-into-1 Porsche header. Today in its state-of-the-art facility, Billy Boat continues to develop the highest performing exhaust systems for most sports cars, trucks, and SUVs. With an in-house dyno facility and R&D staff, BBE stays on top of current vehicle trends and deliver products that fit and perform to an unsurpassed level of standards.
Each Billy Boat Performance Exhaust system incorporates 3-generations of fabrication skill and racing talent. Every system starts with T-304 stainless steel, known throughout the industry as the highest quality material practical for after-cat exhaust applications. All exhaust tubing is mandrel bent on sophisticated CNC machinery for a precise fit and uninterrupted exhaust flow. What’s more, the use of T-304 stainless steel flanges offers high strength and complete resistance to harsh elements. All hangers, resonators, and tips are T-304 stainless steel as well.
Billy Boat Performance Exhaust mufflers are crafted in-house with years of racing and street development invested into the design. Each muffler is tuned to match its application for the best possible performance gain and sound quality combination. For strength, the muffler end-plates are radiused at the inlet and outlet preventing premature cracking. Additionally, reinforcing gussets are used when necessary. Depending on the application, you can choose from 3" round tips with a rolled edge, 4.5" oval rolled edge tips, 5.25" oval rolled edge tips or DTM style tips for European applications.
Performance - It’s what BBE does and it is who they are. With over 25 years of experience in the racing and exhaust industry, Billy Boat has learned a few things about performance. Whether it is leading the field as the fastest qualifier at the 1998 Indy 500 or leading a team of highly skilled fabricators, performance is measured by more than just horsepower. Performance is delivering beyond expectations.
Sound - Would you rather listen to the adrenaline pumping sound of your exhaust than the radio? Does the slightest flick of the throttle make you yearn for open road? With a pleasant tone while cruising down the freeway, or a deep throaty roar when you plant your right foot. Billy Boat Performance Exhaust has spent the last ten years perfecting the sound of their exhaust systems. “We use two different packing materials and as many as three separate SCC’s inside the muffler”, says owner Billy Boat. This design creates the perfect harmony at any RPM range and will have you answering the question - “Where did you get that exhaust system?”
Style - What is function without form? The look of your exhaust system is just as important as the performance and sound. At Billy Boat Performance Exhaust, the product looks so good when it arrives it is a shame to put it under the car! All products are polished to a showroom finish and the exhaust systems are available with several different tip styles. Tip style is as individual as each customer and Billy Boat Performance Exhaust offers a style and selection for everyone.

The mid-pipe is the section of your exhaust system that runs between the exhaust manifold or header and your muffler, or between your catalytic converter and your muffler. Mid-pipes often improve exhaust flow to increase horsepower and fuel economy.
Crossover pipes, such as the H-Pipe, X-Pipe and Y-Pipe, help balance the exhaust pulses from either side of the engine on a V-shape block. This results in a smoother exhaust flow, which can improve horsepower and fuel efficiency.
While the Y-Pipe is similar in design to the X-pipe, the Y-pipe joins exhaust gasses together into one pipe as it flows through to the muffler. Conversely, X-pipes and H-pipes most often flow through a dual exhaust all the way to the muffler.
While it sounds self-explanatory, an off-road mid-pipe may have different meanings for those of us to like to spend our time in the dirt and mud, far away from concrete and asphalt. Technically and legally, off-road means the mid-pipe is not legal for street use, and will not pass emissions tests in most states.
