GHL bullets vs. stock c5z ti's
I'm looking to hop into a purchase of the GHL bullet catback for my 2003 z06. Currently my car has longtubes, intake, tune, etc... Is the GHL going to be considerable louder than the stock titanium exhause? Just wondering as I don't believe I have ever heard the GHL catback.

GHL Bullets are a little louder than the stock Ti's.
Most everyone that has GHL's reports no drone or resonance issues.
Mine are very quiet at cruising speed. I can just barely hear the exhaust rumble behind the car when cruising.
My GHL's absolutely "sings" at WOT with my long tubes.
Sound is too subjective though. You need to hear some different exhausts before you spend the $$. My only advice is to make sure you understand what exhausts drone, and resonate.

Good summary. I had GHL for a few years. Absolutely sounded great. Add a cam and it really sounds amazing.
I switched to B&B Bullets as I wanted even more noise.... I sure got that. Crazy loud now.

I swapped out my Ti's for bullets.. much louder, in a good way, just more than I thought with no drone.. 99% of the reason I wanted to swap the Ti's out was because I wanted larger tips.. If I could have welded stainless tips on to titanium pipe, I would have done that..
