I had the BB Bullets and they are about twice as loud as the Borla.
X-Pipe or not?

I have had Corsa Sports #14169s (no x-pipe) on 3 different C6s.
They were too quiet for my taste.
The tourings would be way too quiet.
Corsa systems do not drone at all though.
Yesterday I was driving to work in my C6 with the Borla Stingers and I passes a Fed Ex truck.
Later that day, my Fed Ex driver at work says to me, you need to get some Borlas on there, you went by me and it is too quiet.
I told him I have Borlas and they sound pretty loud to me.
All those people who tell you the Borla Stingers are too loud, trust me, they are wrong.
They are just loud enough to be enjoyed without being annoying.

It actually pissed me off a little, they sound so good inside the car I thought outside they must sound even better.
As long as I am happy, who cares?
My Bullets used to get thumbs up from everybody I passed, but I couldn't hack them inside the car, they were intolerable.

When I had my Magnaflows installed with the x pipes. The mechanic showed me how much stronger the new pipes were. Much better quality then factory H . He told me this wold keep the sound out of the cabin and out the back where it belonged.
