I love the bullets! We seem to not be able to keep the systems in stock, They are loud but they make the power!

when i get back into a Z this coming summer, the first mods will be bullets, LG long-tubes, and PS2s. My 2005 with bullets and LG's sounded like a corvette ought to sound. dont let these old men (who invariably think they bought a pretty looking cadillac) get you down

Hey there! I just installed a set up B&B Bullets on my '05 6mt and i LOVE LOVE LOVE them! I gotta be honest, i wasnt expecting to be quite as loud as they are... but i am 100% satisified! I only drive the vette on the weekends and when i do.. i want it to SOUND like i actually have a v8 in there! Stock soiunds like Lexus or something!

So i join you in the enjoyment of the badassness! I am getting cam, LG Headers, and intake done this week... so we'll see how the effects it!

I met up with Paul (godzilladude) yesterday and took him for a ride in my car. He pretty much said the same thing as some of you guys - it sounds like a V8 Corvette is supposed to sound. We drove around for maybe an hour, residential and highway. We were able to have a normal conversation the whole time (okay, excluding when I floored it a couple times), and we agree the exhaust sounds great.

Yep, that is a very nice sound. For those that have been around race cars, it's not loud But it is not subtle.

That is one sweet ride, and damn quick.

Sound sweet!! I have bullets and love them but they are not loud enough. I am going long tubes w/o cats soon and I am very excited. Yours sounds great.

I have a 1967 Ford F-100 w/ a 351Windsor in it so no inspection needed. I pulled off the pipes and run open headers and it sounds like a monster truck! ha ha V8's are great!

I've had mine on for over a year now and still love them, they are loud but I feel like I got used to them. Btw, I'm catless and have long tubes.

I love them...

That's pretty good

I can remember when I was 9 I went to a Monster Truck show at the Metro dome, in MN where I grew up. Just listening to the tractor pullers with the twin Allison P-38 engines full bore...man that's something!

That's where I herd my calling for Motorsports

But I respect that sound is definitely one of those personal preference things...I just hope when we get old we can still be appreciative of an unrestricted finely tuned machine!

I love my Bullets and long tubes w/cats.

Had them for a couple of years now. It's how the Corvette should sound.

Great choice, you'll continue to love them.
