Default SLP Loudmouth vs B&B Bullets...

I know this is a loaded question... but I have the SLP Loudmouth's and I was wondering if changing to B&B Bullets is a moot point since they are both straight pipes essentially. I know the Bullets have resonators in them and the Loudmouth's do not, so is there much difference in either the sound level or tone?? Anyone have experience with both?

Its like comparing a Top Fuel Dragster with a Top Fuel Funny Car

I have the bullets and they are loud. From what I hear the SLP's are more Raspy.

Both sound great IMO

Raspy... yea... I guess that's it. They just sound rough... don't know if it's because I still have the stock h-pipe or not. I have been thinking of getting a x-pipe before I abandon the Loudmouth's. I kind of figured that they would be about the same sound level. Anyone else have any input?

I am also thinking about backing down a level of loudness and going with something like the Borla Stingers... are there any other systems out there that I should look at if I want to be just a step down from straight pipes?

Definately get the x-pipe before you do anything, the Bullets will be slightly raspy too and you will defintely have the "motor boat" sound without the X.

Is there anyone in the central florida area that has a set of Loudmouth's with stock manafolds and cats with an x-pipe? I would be interested in hearing the difference.
