Can you post a pic showing where the bullets are installed? And do you have a pic from under the car showing the downpipes?

Do you guys really think a custom cam will fix this issue? I'm planning twins for my daily and do not want it sounding like a dump truck!!!
No, it will sound like a cammed dump truck, unless you run some kind of mufflers. The mini bullets I have really did nothing in improving the sound.

Mine sounds like *** too. I ended up putting full exhaust with xpipe and bullets and the note sounds way better....but it's almost too tame and all the cool turbine whistle disappears lol. I lost 60hp on low boost through the exhaust so added cutouts to get back to dump truck mode. Here's a medium boost shakedown pass with the cutouts open....it's awful

I dont mind mine much. I dont have very much street time so maybe it will get old and annoying once I start driving it more.

[QUOTE=Y2K_Camaro;19925361]What's the set up on yours? Doesn't sound so bad to me.
Setup in my sig. I have the Huron speed TT kit. I modified the down pipes and went 3" to 4" out of each side of the front bumper. The turbos quieted it down a lot more than I expected.

That's cool. Part throttle cruising or taking off from a stop light will be the determination for me lol. My n/a 5.3 truck sounds good with the cutout open at idle and WOT, not so good at part throttle keeping up with traffic. But then again I don't have turbos to tone it down either.
Cool, sounds good. Did it rob you of any horsepower? I've heard of people saying mufflers robbed power on their turbo cars but I don't know how restrictive their muffler was.

Probably can't hear it too well, but here is my buddy's TT S10 that I did the turbo setup and tune on.
222/222 cam with Black Widow Neighbor Hater mufflers. They're short, mostly straight through mufflers with an X-style chamber on them.
Going out next friday and shooting for ~10.70s.

I use a cheap $120 RCA laptop with detachable keyboard to tune on the go.
