Default Bigger BOV?

I have a 2012 C6 Grand Sport with an A&A VSi trim that I installed a year ago. I have a 50mm TS Raceport bov. I was like a kid in a candy store for the first time with the sound of the bov. I’m one of those that likes the loud sound. This summer we went catless with long tube headers and now the rush is over. The sound of the bov is not as significant. My question to you is if I went with a Big Bubba with a trumpet, will that make the sound more noticeable?

I know it sounds very petty but I guess it’s the little things in life. Black Friday is coming and I was looking to pull the trigger on a Big Bubba. Am I just wasting my money? If it will improve the sound, will purchasing a non-A&A Big Bubba work? I’ve found a 52mm Big Bubba Sleeper for a really good price. Any input you have is greatly appreciated. Have a great Thanksgiving!!

I have a 50mm TS RacePort. It is pretty loud. A Big Bubba with the trumpet will be louder.

A non A&A will work fine. A&A buys them from TS.

A sleeper recirculates the air, it will be quiet, hence the name "sleeper".

Thank you Steve for the feedback. I will purchase a universal Big Bubba with trumpet. I will stay away from the sleeper. Thank you!

Yes the BigBubba w/ trumpet is what we sell to scare women and children going down the street.

Thank you Josh! I’m banging my head because I should have upgraded to the Bug Bubba when I ordered the kit from you guys!
