Default Questions on Billy Boat Bullets...

I was wondering if what I am seeing in the catalog is true? Do the Billy Boat Bullets hook together with bolts, or do they use clamps like the majority of the other cat-backs? In the picture it looks like the sections actually bolt togather at the flanges. Also, can someone give me an idea of where they fall into the loudness catagory? I would assume the Bullets fall some place between SLP Loudmouths and GHL Magnums. Just wondering cause I have had my Magnums for a few weeks now, yet they seem a little too tame for my liking. Don't want the Loudmouths...neighbors like to complain. Just looking for a happy medium between the Loudmouths and Magnums. Thanks in advance!!!

They are fastened with bolts and locking nuts at every connecting point. The sound is more aggressive than the Stingers, but probably a tad tamer than the LM's.

I love my bullets and ven though they are a bit loud, I find at WOT they scare thepee out of anyone nearby.

Good luck on your decision.

The B&B Bullets produce a more refined sound than the Loudmouths, since crappy high frequencies are filtered out. You (and your neighbours ) will definitely like the sound of the Billy Boats!
