I've got it. I like it.
It has a nice rumble to it and exits in the stock location.

Love it---has a great throaty sound, yet quite in the H2 with the window up.

Since it is 304 SS, no rust.

I have it and love the sound. Good quality too.

Where could I find a B&B Exhaust setup for my H2?? Sounds as if everyone that has this setup is satisfied with them. I was looking at the MagnaFlow Wide Open pipe, but have not yet decided... any recommendations? I want a good throaty sound but do not want a noisy interior at highway speeds.

Thanks-

It's not on the website, but I bet he can get it.

Go with the B & B--much better quality and no noise in the cabin. Magnaflow is good---B & B is better and more expensive but worth it.

PM me for more details if you are still having doubts.

I'm sorry for reviving this post but I held back purchasing this because after posting this I got a message, from someone claiming to be a Hummer tech, saying that any after-market exhaust would degrade my trucks performance.
I waited and tried to get in touch with this Hummer Tech but haven't heard from him.
If you are still on this forum please PM me if you have any new information on after-market exhausts. I am looking to upgrade my exhaust system in about two weeks.
Thank you.

I would be very interested in hearing why an aftermarket exhaust would degrade your truck's performance.

I am open to the reason why?

the original message told me that if you add a volant air intake system and an aftermarket exhaust (such as Corsa, Borla, BB...) the truck would get too much air and performance would be worse than stock.
I'm not posting the message in respect for the person who PM'd me. But it's been almost a year and he hasn't told me of any progress on the subject.

Or $767.00

Your ECU will adjust after a few cycles to the exhaust and air intake. You will get some more power but nothing to throw you back in the seat.

Still, I think the combo is one of the best to wake up the 6.0L just a bit.

Design...The Flowmaster package for 99-01 Cobra Mustangs degraded performance, as per dyno testing back to back. It is not a frequent event, but has been known to happen. Cannot imagine is happening on the H2,though.

If you want to save a few pounds & get a more aggressive sound do the exhaust for those reasons, not the 2-3 HP you might gain. As for intakes, well if you want to spend the money go ahead. You're unlikely to pick up any measureable HP & unless you go with the Volant or a true sealed system drawing fresh air, like the factory box, you may actually give up performance. Good luck.
BTW, if you really want to wake up the H2's 6.0 a S/C is the real deal.
