Default Pacesetter ORY w/ Bullets (what length)

What length of Bullets are you guys using on your Pacesetter ORY to quiet things down? Did they have any effect on the pacesetter buzz?

Are you planning on running another muffler along with the bullet? I'm not sure, but i bet with just a bullet and nothing else its going to be very loud. I have Pacesetter LT's, ORY (no cats), and a SIDO 40 series and it is pretty darn loud, almost too loud. I suggest going with a larger muffler, as in Magnaflow, Flowmaster, or whatever sound you like.

i would advise not running bullets. if you must insist though i will have a set for sale soon that ill let go cheap pretty much brand new, im supposed to be getting mufflers put on my truck and the bullets taken off, i hate them... they so ****** loud

i think they are 16" long 3" diameter... dunno 100% though

ill be running 2 of these in place of my bullets

Two of them inline or true duals one on each side? Either way a one chamber is still going to be very loud IMO

to be perfectly honest i dunno. i put my full exhaust on all at once... until i did i was just running bonestock aside form catback. so the bullets themselves may not have made a difference.

i just dont like the drone and how loud they are. they vibrate my back window so bad, i cant hear my wife right next to me when im driving (sometimes its a good thing) just too loud for me... of course i plan to DD mine, if its a race truck it may be diff

i have fbody LTs into 3" stainless, into an x, into dual bullets, and its dumped out the side like the side swept exhausts

I run pacesetters with an ory into a single 3" dynomax bullet. It sounds like horse **** between 2500 to 3500. It's raspy as ****, and just flat out doesn't sound good.

Its hard to find sound clips of these trucks with LT's and no cats, and most the time when you do it has a cam which i dont have, so i have a very hard time finding a muffler to replace this 40 series. I'm thinking about a spintech.

I'm just worried the IMCO would not be much different than the Flowmaster i have on my truck. I can never make up my mind! lol
