I still think they are loud and I'm still young. Driving 300 miles a week in a car with Kooks 1 7/8 LT's, OR X pipe, and no cats will do that to a man lol.

Whoever says they are not too loud, does not have LT headers. Add headers and you'll be getting rid of them.

I agree, I have LG Pros with the x-pipe, cats, and the B&B bullets. Not loud enough for me! I want to take of the cats!

Love my Bullets the sound is awesome, and they cause a fear factor with the Mustang owners and ricer boys.
They put a stop to most stop light challenges.

I'm 50 and have Bullets and don't consider them loud at all UNLESS at WOT. When I put them on and took my wife out for a Sunday drive she didn't even know I changed the stock exhaust to them (I never went WOT). Yes I have a good partition but windows are always down also.

My wife talks on the phone and reads a book while we take cruises with no problems at all with any noise. The common drone with them is only at 2600-2900 rpms and I'm never at those rpms while cruising so again not a problem.

At idle they are a little bit burbly BUT NO WAY LOUD at all.

Yes they are louder than stock, but not to the point they will get you a ticket from any cop.

Anyone who thinks they are loud and obnoxious at anything other than WOT has their hearing aids turned up too high...

That's kinda funny since I put the Bullets on the only comment I've gotten from a ricer was "damn man that sound is pure sex"

Only neg comment I ever had was someone lean out of the window and say ah man just ell me why you had to get a vette over an import?!

My response was to drop the hammer (with the clutch disengaged of course hehe) the response was priceless dudes jaw was on the floor

i have long tube headers with my bullets, and it's my daily driver (60 miles every day)

they sound amazing, and i feel miserable driving in anything that's quieter
