Default Bullets on a DD?

When I first started looking at parts, I planned on getting a Borla stinger exhaust, But after reading about the B&B Bullets, I'm starting to think that maybe those would be more what I'm looking for. For those of you that have or have had them, what do you think of them for my daily driver (50-mile daily commute)?

I like my car loud but I got sick of my bullets after a month and went with GHL Magnums.

I have the bullets, my roommie has the stingers. If you were planning on going with the stingers then you wont have any problems with the bullets. Good luck with the decision

Stingers. Bullets get old pretty quickly. Build quality of the stingers is better too, IMO.

I drive my car every day and the Stingers are perfect. I like loud, but IMO the bullets are to much. Also the quality of the parts isnt the greatest either.

Mine is a daily driver with a Stinger Quad. Actually I like both the Stinger and Bullets. The Bullets IMO is a little louder than the Stinger.

Does anyone know the weight of the bullets? I'm interested to see how close they are to Ti's. TIA

I've had Stingers and currently running the Bullets; and I think it depends on your mods. Obviously, if you have a cam, headers, free-flowing or no cats, more CR, etc. your volume will increase. I think Bullets are fine for a DD with stock cats.

I also think it depends on the length of your commute. Back in Oct. I made a 400 mile round trip up to Ft. Worth for the Indy car race, and with my FLP headers and cats, my ears were ringing by the end of the day!
