B&B Bullits / Borla Stigers
I am looking for a nice agressive sound on my new '07 vert. Please help me decide.This is a weekend driver wth no mods other than a planned VaraRam. had the Corsa Pacecar on my '01 and they were not loud enough.
Does anyone have a link to soundclips for these?
Thanks

This is a great Corvette retailer. Have bought lots of stuff from them and they ship quickly to even Ontario. Prices are beatable elswhere if you shop around though, sometimes considerably.
However, they have an exhaust soundboard. It helps, though nothing substitutes hearing them in person.
Bullets are the loudest exhaust followed arguably by the Borla Stingers. If you really like loud you should consider the Bullets. If you still want pretty loud but a touch down from the loudest, get the Stingers.
Many forum members have both and love both. I have Stingers and would never consider another exhaust.
Good luck.

At WOT they are similar. BB will idle and cruise louder.
I have Borla. BBs are popular as are Borlas. Sound clips are about useless due to variables in the recording and play back medium, distance of the mike from the exhause, etc, etc. I based mt decision on a live demo following a club meeting. You need to hear them in person. Carisle would be the best place or a local Vette gathering.
If you just looking for a more agressive sound, save a Grand and get Flow Masters installed at a muffler shop for about $250. That will give you time to explore the alternatives. Personally I think they're all sound good. It's just that they are different - high/low pitch.
Everyone will tell you theirs is the best cuz they spent $1200 or so to get them and they do not want to look foolish.

Sound clips are a example of volume and it is almost impossible to get the real tone.
You should really ask the forum for members who are in your area if they would be available to demo their exhaust. It would be well worth your time to hear the exhaust in person. Usually a well known repair depot of Corvettes always have cars in for repair with different branded exhaust.
Take it from me. I now have Stingers but purchased another system first on word of mouth and it was a $1,300 mistake.

$700 for the Bullets, as they have no mufflers, are considerably cheaper than the systems that do. SLP Loudmouths only have resonators, as well, so cost much less, too. I had the LMs on my 2000 T/A. Liked them, but the tuning of the Bullets is far better. And the burble and popping on overrun is like the smell of napalm in the morning: smells like victory..

Wow, awesome link.
Edit: Got home to check it out and no borla soundclip.
I'm pretty much 80% set on the stingers right now. My only concern is drone, since I will have an A6. Basically looking for something that won't be obnoxiously loud at idle/cruising, but will scream under WOT.
