Default B&B bullets

does anyone have bullets that don't like them?

Any time Dad gets a chance to rev, he does. Might be too loud for some-but that's not the case here.

They are loud but I tink they sound perfect. In my opinion they sound better with the X-pipe (corsa) installed. Without it they are louder but alot of popping on deceleration. There is resonance at certain rpm's again less with the X-pipe. I dont mind it,I want a muscle car sound.

I've had mine for over a year. Still can't get enough of them. I can't imagine the Vette without them now.

I too thought the Bullets sounded the best. BUT, after they were installed and heard them from inside the car, it's a little different. Drone to the max but, when you get on it it's back to the best sound out there. I sold the B&B's and back to the Ti system right now. Most likely go with GHL next time.

Just installed another set today and noticed that B&B has addressed the initial problem with the bolts being too big and the gasket quality is much improved....they also polish more than just the tips now as well. Made a great system twice as good IMO.
