Default Review of B&B Bullet PRT on ZR1

Just installed the Bullet PRT in my garage. Very easy and straightforward. It uses an axle back system with one resonator and muffler per side. It attaches to the stock x-pipe. The only issue I had was getting the stock muffler and over axle pipe off of the passenger side. Very little room to manuever and you want to be careful as there are a quite a few wires for various things running through that area.

I had heard it was loud, but it sounds like a monster at start up, idle and acceleration. But I do love that. Much deeper tone than the stock exhaust and you will hear it in the cabin of the car.

The Bullet also has much more pronounced popping and gurgling from the exhaust. Even during normal acceleration and shifting you can hear it. But I love that also as it reminds me of some of the older muscle cars.

As far as drone on the highway, it is surprisingly not bad below 75 mph, which is fine for most everyday casual driving here as highway speed limits range from 60-65mph. Above 75mph, it gets loud and ear plugs and two asprin for long driving will be required.

WOW, I'd love to hear it. I've had four sets of B&B exhausts - two of them Bullets. I know some folks don't like the drone at some speeds, but winding up through the gears, and burbling on shifts is unbelievably intoxicating with them. I love them!
