Default Borla XR1's vs. Dynomax bullets

Has anyone switched from Dynomax bullets to the Borla XR1 bullets? I have true duals on my car with the Dynomax bullets and they are just slightly too loud. I'm not looking for it to be real quiet I just want to get rid of some of the drone.

Yea me too. I love my Bullets but I hear people saying the XR-1's are just insane. I haven't yet heard one good vid of an LT1 running XR-1's on Duals so please post up.

I'm not sure if they will be any less loud, but I'd bet that they will sound better. IMO, Dynomax's flow well, but sound kinda crappy...

There's a vid of my friend's car, it's probably the best sounding LT1 I've heard (and I've heard a lot!)

It's a true duals/x-pipe, over the axle setup with 2 XR1s after the axle.
