Default Used Muffler... Tri Flow question?

Hi, one of my buddies called me asking me to come check out a used muffler a muffler shop was selling... well they dind't know what it was so i went to take a look at it and sure enough it was a -
97-04 B&B Tri-Flow Bullet Exhaust System - 2 Tip

Well.. he wants 300 for it and its off a 02' cp
Well i went on a site and checked it out which said that that would be the loudest damn muffler... im a bit worried buying a used muffler its in good condition but damn.. .I don't want something super loud does anyone have linkys for the audio files for this one? How nasty is this thing.

Keep in mind my whole car is dynomated extreme and frostking layer too so don't hear much noice ... actually i dont hear the marbels in a can anymore either so how loud would it be since i don't really like loud mufflers.

Yep, the bullet will be loud. But not too bad if the rest of your exhaust is stock..ie no headers. If you don't like loud. Buy them and trade them here on the forum or on Z06vette.com for a stock Z06 system

It will be quite a bit louder than your stock system. If you don't want loud, you may want to find another system.
