B&B Billy Boat Exhaust B&B Shorty Headers Corvette C5 1.75 inch Primary FCOR-0255

Built entirely of T-304 stainless steel, Billy Boat Performance Exhaust Shorty Headers for the C-5 Corvette are direct replacement parts for the factory equipment. Billy Boat Performance Exhaust is the originator of the LS1 shorty header. Longer, equal length primary tubes increase performance and throttle response and large diameter 1.75 primary tubes improve flow. Unlike most header manufacturers who settle for an open collector, Billy Boat Performance Exhaust hand builds each of its 4-into-1 merged collectors for the best performance possible. In addition to a performance increase of 10 rear wheel horsepower, Billy Boat Performance Exhaust's Shorty Headers weigh 15.3 pounds, that is less than half the weight of the heavy OEM cast iron manifolds.

What’s the difference between our Billy Boat Exhaust Systems such as the C6 and C7?

BULLET Exhaust – Aggressive Sound

Billy Boat Exhaust has created a deep, healthy exhaust note at low RPMs with an assertive muscle car roar on acceleration. Not for the weak at heart, the Bullet has quickly become the industry standard for a deep, aggressive muscle car sound on the C6. You can see up to 18 rear wheel horse power and 17 foot pounds of torque from the Bullet. Billy Boat Exhaust’s boldest tip style and configuration insures your Corvette will scream ”muscle car”.

PRT Exhaust – Aggressive Sound at Wide-Open-Throttle, Mild sound at cruise

The Billy Boat Exhaust PRT exhaust system is the latest in resonance control technology from BBE. Completely redesigned and reengineered for the C6, the system is simple in design, though more complex in theory. You can now have a mellow NO-DRONE sound at cruising speeds and a sport note when you’re tearing up the streets. It allows true straight through exhaust passage under aggressive driving conditions, though a mellow sound is emitted at cruising speeds thanks to the unique Purge Chamber. Designed especially for the automatic, paddle shift and cars with headers, this Billy Boat Exhaust PRT system works purely on physics and adrenaline. Increases of 15 hp and 14 ft lbs over stock.

FUSION Exhaust – NPP Controlled Bi-Modal…Aggressive when Open, Mild when Closed

Billy Boat Exhaust has designed a Fusion NO-DRONE exhaust for the factory NPP and the non-NPP option equipped cars such as the Corvette, Camaro, and CTS-V. On most cars with the Dual-Mode NPP option, the butterfly valve in the exhaust is controlled by the ECU. The valve opens based on RPM and throttle position. Our expertise here at BBE is getting the “tone” right for your car, and we think we nailed this one. Even in the closed position, the tone is deeper, louder, and more aggressive. Open the valves, the overall volume and tone increases to the point heads will turn when you drive up.

*Add our FCOR-0468 conversion kit for Corvette models without factory NPP controls. The kits comes complete with all the wiring, remote switch, vacuum line, vacuum accumulator, and vacuum switch needed for installation. Can only be ordered with Fusion Exhaust Systems.
