I love the sound and looks of my GHL bullets.

That's what you really gain.

Horsepower? Not much. I paid $920 shipped to my door for the bullets. I have never heard a single bit of drone and do a lot of highway driving(took the vette from Jersey to Miamii a couple months ago). It also sounds relatively quiet in the cabin as opposed to what it sounds like to people outside the car. Really the best cat-back on the market for these cars.

This is what my car made with just the GHL bullets and a tune, no other mods:

I love the sound of the bullets on my car, but I didn't feel any real SOTP diffrence in power. I have an A4 car and with 2.73's and there was a definite drone between 1450 & 1550 rpm or 55 mph.

Swapping to 3.42 gears fixed it right up.

You are barking up the wrong tree if you think there is any catback that is going to give you a noticeable hp gain.
