Default BB PRT vs. Borla S-Type II

On otherwise bone stock engine and exhaust, which of these 2 systems is deeper/throaty sound and which is louder volume? I'm 80% sold on the PRT but, want to be sure before I purchase. I don't want to do this twice.

I'm looking for a deep throaty sound, more like an old muscle car... and not the euro sports car sound.

Thanks

I'm a big fan of the B&B Bullets but if you can't take a little drone go w\ the PRT's! I've heard the borlas and there ok but I wouldn't recommend them on a Vette they sound better on my friends 2.8 KB stang than a c6 - Eric

Yeah, I love the sound of the Bullets but, I need it a little quieter and no drone. Are the PRT's deeper than the Borlas?

Chris,

You need to search Mooksters thread he posted a couple days ago with a video. I think it sold me on the PRT's. His car is stock except for PRT's.

I just put BB PRT's on my 2007 along with an Airraid Intake and a tune...sounds great, pretty much no drone at cruising speeds.
