Default GHL exhaust sound clips

OK, dig through your videos and sound clips.

I used to have a 2000 coupe and I had the two-tip stingers on it, loved the sound! Then I traded the coupe in for my new Z06. I kept the stingers, installed them, and though they looked killer, I hated the interior resonance. I LOVED the sound from the outside, and under full throttle it was fierce, but really, just hated it under 'regular' driving conditions. So after just three days, I put the stock Z06 titanium exhaust back on. I really want to get an aftermarket system, something with a little more attitude, but with as little of the dreaded drone as I can.

Anyone have any exhaust sound clips/ids of the GHL Magnums (six inch mufflers preferably) The ones on GHL's website are hard to judge.

I'd love to hear everyones feedback on exhaust sound. B&B Bullets? GHL's 5 or 6 inch? I really want to go with a two-tip design, aside from that I'm pretty open. Can't wait to hear some opinions

I just installed my GHL X pipe and GHL bullets today- they sound AWESOME. No resonance, and it sounds mean. I also have LT headers, and the car is cammed- I'll see what I can do to get a video

The Magnums are 5" cans, the Bullets are 6"

If you want to avoid resonance get the GHL Bullets.
The Bullets will sound more aggressive than the Ti's with very little resonance.

I've had the Stingers, GHL Magnums and now the GHL Bullets. Magnums imho have equal to or greater resonance than the Stingers. The Bullets have very little resonance but sound great.

Don't put too much trust in sound clips, you may be disappointed. I've had 4 different systems on my car in this order: (stock) Then Ti's, Magnums, Stingers and now the Bullets. None of the sound clips I heard were very close to the actual systems in real life. The only clip I've heard that was close to what my same system sounds like is the GHL Bullet clip with the Black Vette. Can't remember who posted it but I will try and find it for you.

Thanks for all of the replies and advice. I'm starting to think I need to go with The GHL bullets. I want a noticably more agressive sound, but want to maintain my sanity on a freeway cruise. Sounds like this is the way to go. I'd love to hear that clip if you can find it. I'm relatively new to this forum, is there a section that the videos are stored, or only attached to posts? Thanks again, looking forward to hearing the clip
