Default B&B Bullets On

I got my B&B Bullets installed today. It was not as easy as assumed but not difficult either. We were using a pit and it wasn't the best of spots. The mufflers swung down right where the supports were, go figure. We tried jacking it up in the center of the rear with one of those 4' jacks and the car almost fell in the pit, due to the fact that the jack was slightly ofset from being straight up and down. The driver's side came out easy. No jacking needed. We lightly bolted it all up and tried to line them up the best we could. I still need to get back under there and straighten them up. Then we tightened everything down. Fired up and no exhaust leaks. What a feeling, job well done. It sounds amazing. The drone is perfect for me, b/c I like to hear it. The popping when I down shift is ear pleasing. I can't wait til I get my headers and X-Pipe. I will try and get pics tomorrow with a little film of how they sound, but I need to wash her first. It is extremely dirty thanks to the rains we had down here in Florida.

Thanks B&B for an easy product to install. I am more than happy with the install and the after feeling and sound.

Good choice

I went with the Bullets after hearing 100 different exhausts. They're deeper and more aggressive sounding than the Borla Stingers.

Oh, and you will love it once you get LT Headers and xpipe

ask me how I know

Gotta love the Bullets

The best money I've spent on the Z so far. By the way, you'll no longer need your stereo.

, It's hard for me to stay out of the gas, b/c it sounds so good. I love the gargle and popping when I downshift. Reminds me of my Stingray.

that's the same catback I have. One of the meanest sounding exhausts around and that's what others have said.I don't like the drone though.

I installed the bullets on my car when it was stock. Loved them. I figured when I finally got around to installing a big cam they would be too loud but now that I have the MS4 I love the bullets even more. The 4 tips design is kind of aggravating though without cats. The inner 2 tips stay black and the outer 2 tips stay shiny but damn it sounds good!

After driving for a few days, I can't get enough. I can hear them when cruising at 70, but they are not annoying. I love every aspect of them. Idle, WOT, cruising, the drone...

Can't wait til I get the Headers and X-pipe.
