I am running the BB Tri-flo PRT exhaust system on my '02 Z06 and I believe it is by far one of the best systems out there. I like it because it's not too loud when cruising around but it definitely opens up and lets them know you're coming when you are on the throttle. You can comfortably drive the car on the highway or around town and enjoy the Bose system and your passenger, if you have one. Also note that I am running LT headers as well and even with the headers it is still very nice and comfortable while driving. I get compliments every time the car is out about the exhaust note. Good luck.

B&B Bullets are the loudest, deepest, most bad-*** pipes on the planet. People are always asking me who makes my exhaust.

I have the bullets as well and they are extremely loud with headers and no cats. As far as cruising speeds with my current setup it is really loud in the cabin around 2.5k rpms.
