Well the decision has been made, I went with the GHL Bullets with quad tips. Jeff at GHL was great to work with and very helpfull. The build time was about a 5-7 days and they will ship next week. Can't wait and thanks again for all of the recomendations.................

I just put BB bullets on my stock 2001
I think it sounds great. I do get some rosonance @ 2400 RPM with the windows up, but you can shift around it. Besides I very rarely drive with the windows up. I would rate it at an 8.
Go to a local Vette gathering and have a listen.

I think you'll be very pleased with the Ghl bullets. That was one of the first mods I put on and they kick butt. I'm sure there are other good systems out there, but I see no way I could be any happier with any other setup.

Corsa's Best
I have Corsa Indy's on my 2002 and found a huge seat of the pants increase in power. Whether it matters or not, Corsa is endorsed by Chevrolet and has a GM part number. If there were ever any questions on mods causing repair problems, the GM part number automatically gives you warranty coverage for the exhaust, at least. The Italians love it and I can drive practically as quiet as stock if I need to and if I want to make some noise, I can match the Harleys!

Best C5 Exhaust
I've used B&B Indy's & Bullets. I've used Corsas. They are both good.
I now have GHL s/s headers, hi-flow cats, x-pipe, & their original Bullets on my '04 Z06. All I can say is FANTASTIC! The fit & quality is superior. The bullets sound fantastic! And, there is absolutely no interior resonance! Remember, I had B&B Bullets first. They sound great, but have resonance points that are brutally painful. The GHL bullets sound terrific too & have no resonance!
You will not find a better system. You can call the owners, Brian and Jeff, at 480-655-0935 or 877-930-09110. They are super to work with and will do anything to help you. Tell them that Paul Hamersly referred you.

I just put a set of quad round tip Borla Stingers on yesterday. Great muscle car sound and no annoying resonance, but the popping on deceleration is a little annoying. I'm going for x-pipes next. I would probably recommend x-pipes so you can get everything on at the same time

I am still waiting for my exhaust to arrive. I will post my opinion once it's installed. As I mentioned in earlier post, I ordered the GHL system with quad tips. They have changed their tip offerings and deleted a few from the line-up. The new tips are the double wall style. I will say this, Jeff and the guys at GHL are Great to work with! Call them......

01 corsa indy w/ x pipe
Just installed today. Just as advertised. Stock at idle, When you hit it, you feel it and hear it. Awesome. A 5 or 6 is accurate. If you want to heard all the time Corsa is not for you..
