The PRT's are a great option...
I had the choice to put on Bullets or PRT's at B&B Fabrication as I live a couple minutes from them. The PRT's are almost as loud at WOT, but at cruise have a nice rumble and no drone.
Good Luck with you decision!

I love mine. No problems with law and get tons of compliments on how they sound. I commute 80 miles a day one way mostly interstate.

Mine made my rear glass buzz. It was driving me crazy, but I loved the exterior tone, for sure. Ended up going with a set of GHL bullets. OK compromise.

I have B and B bullets, quad tip, long tubes and no converters. Cruising it is not bad at all. Even pressing the throttle a little more isn't bad. I will say that around 3k RPM at WOT, it does have a blasting sound which I think sounds like crap, but at 4k and up with your foot through the radiator, it sounds good. But normal driving isnt bad by any means. And I have not been pulled over for anything related to the sound off my car.
