Default B&B Bullets

This past Friday I placed an order for the 4-tips which should be shipping on 10/16. My problem is that I will not be able to install them until after Christmas because they are a Birthday/Christmas present from my wife and two sons.
As soon as another fellow forum member has them installed I would love to hear your comments and a sound clip if at all possible.
Thanks! :D

A friend just got his for a Z06, but has not installed them yet (as far as I know today). I have a set coming for my convertible. As soon as I hear his, or mine, I'll jump in.

I CANNOT believe you are going to wait. You must be one hell of a Dad :flag

I believe Jim is referring to me. I should finish my installation tonight. I was sick most of last week and the weekend so didn't get a chance to install them. As soon as I get them installed, I'll report back.

I've had them for almost a week and it's killing me not to have them on yet. No way I could wait until Christmas.

Mine are going on the day they arrive.
I will have my neighbors post a UPS watch and let me know if they come during the day while I am at work.
If so I may have to leave early. :D

It's not my two boys that are holding up the installation, it is the wife. Just getting her to okay the purchase as a gift was a miracle itself. She feels somewhat jealous of my car. I guess I can't bame her. I really think she is going to enjoy watching me sweat it out until Christmas. She is very controlling but I love her to death and I am willing to wait even though it might kill me!!!! My next mod might be a set of headers but I don't think I could wiggle my way into another gift because of the cost.

I heard them today on CorvetteSS Z06 and they sound great! They have a very deep sound to them at idle and really sound good as the rpm's increase. You won't be disapointed.

Need input: How does the B&B Bullets compare to the Borla Stingers in performance and loudness? Are they louder?
