Default Installed my GHL Bullets today!

The GHL Bullets showed up on Friday, pulled the old B&B Route 66's off yesterday and was going to wait till next spring to install but went for it today before storing the car before the snowy season.

Hardest part was removing the B&B as they were tac welded, so out came the die grinder. The Bullets were pretty easy and lined up nicely.

All I can say is HOLLY CRAP!!! Went for one last run before parking it. Sounds amazing and will take a little time to get use to it. I can really hear my cam now.

Congrats !

I sooooo agree. Best exhaust out there. Super nice for $800 shipped !
I convinced a buddy of mine to install them and he is so excited how better his car sounds now. He has an Auto and says he is not getting any drone. He has a BIG cam. I don't get any drone from mine either.

Here is his video

If you were all stock it might be fine for a vert.

I have them on my '99 coupe. They are great! How did the stock clamps work? Mine did not hold properly so had to replace with aftermarket clamps. Other then that, very happy with them.

Couldn't agree more! GHLs are the best sounding exhaust on our cars. I can't wait to hear them after the H/C upgrade that I'm going to be doing soon. They already sound great with just headers.

Congratulations!

Aside from the sound, is there any noticeable difference from the Route66?
