Default which is quieter? 18 in. bullet, 12 in. borla xr1??

ive heard the borlas are quieter then the 12 inch bullets, but will it be quieter then the 18 inch bullet.. also i guess i could get the 16 inch borla.. im trying to determine what will produce the most quiet deep sound out of these straight thru mufflers, i know they will all be loud, but what will be most streetable.

Question bullet or XR1

I got the tsp that has a 18'' bullet and it sound all right, good deep tone but i'm thinking toward the XR1. there is not many videos that have it and i wonder how it would sound on pasetter LT and No catted Y eventhough its 2'' shorter than the 18'' bullet. undefined

The borla XR-1 is a much better muffler than any bullet.
I've had both in my I-pipe and would reccomend the
Borla over the bullet. Sounds less raspy and deeper,
but not as "noisy loud".
