I got to here the B&B Bullet exhaust for the first time yesterday. They were with LT's and no cats. I love the sound! I have the LT's no cats and PRT's. I think I want the BULLETS. Mine sounds good, but raspy. The bullets sound deep throaty, the best sound I have heard coming out of a corvette.
Do they drone a lot more than the PRT's?

They'll drone your teeth out at certain RPMs. Small price to pay for their sound however.

Like everyone else has already said, they will drone bad around 1600-2000K. I have Kooks 1 7/8 LT, and no cats. The sound at WOT is nice though. I'm actually at going with the GHL's or Corsa.

They Drone on the Z, but with the addition of a partition you will not be worried about it anymore. It was the best sounding mod I have done to my car.

I have the same setup and would not trade it for anything else.The partition helped cut down on noise inside .

I have a truck as a daily driver. As infrequently as i drive mine, it does not bother me at all. I just turn the radio up.

IMO they're the best sounding exhaust

great quality too, easy install, and good price


i don't have (or notice) any drone though....maybe because i'm 25 years old or the partition might have something to do with it...or because i like cruising at 2-3k rpms

I wouldn't go that far. Mine still drone w/ the partition, however I could care less because the car sounds bad-***; like a 'vette should in my opinion.
