I was tempted to get the 6 inch myself, but didn't want to risk it rubbing all over the place on speed bumps. My 4 inch is about the same size as my Dynomax bullet was, and it sounds a lot better to me, much deeper, less drone at highway speeds.

do you still have a lot of drone at highway speeds or is it pretty quiet with that muffler

nobody has given me a straight answer about the drone while cruising

I don't get much drone on the highway anymore, but I still get it at slower speeds under load, which is fine with me. It's the highway drone that I hated, not being able to carry on a conversation at 70.

The six inch would probably kill even more of that drone, but again I'd be worried about clearance.

as long as i can still listen to the radio at normal levels and be able to talk to people normally, thats fine with me, i dont mind listening to the exhaust, as long as its not humming and giving me a headache

I don't know how it will compare to the LM2 bullet, but I like it better than my old Dynomax

well i dont want to use the loudmouth bullet because it reduces down to 2.5 inches, i looked at pics of the borlamouth and that cuts it close with clearance on the floorboard
