Can anyone add any info on the British Customs Bomber exhaust? As loud as, louder than, similar to....??


I have the British Customs Bombers and really like them. I've had:
- Long TORS; too quiet and poppy sounding.
- Short TORS; I liked the way they looked but they were even "softer" sounding than the long tors, go figure.
- Chevy 605 de-baffled stock; I like these, nice tone, but still a bit too loud to my ears.
- Specialty Spares; they sounded great at idle and just lazy cruising, but man were they loud under heavy acceleration, and to me, a bit too raspy.
- British Customs Bombers; I really like them. To me the best overall sound at idle, cruising, and accelerating. Loudness-wise just below the Chevy 605's.

I bought all these various pipes through the classifieds on here or eBay and got good deals, then eventually sold them here or on eBay and basically broke even. It was a drawn out process, but I'm very happy with my BC Bombers. They're stainless steel and I think they look really cool. One caveat is they mount to the holes on the bottom of the frame instead of using the factory mount which precludes you from having a center-stand. But that adds to their appearance in my opinion, and I don't ever plan on having a center-stand.

The BC Bombers are expensive. If you're on a budget I think de-baffled stock pipes or having Chevy 605 do it, is they way to go. He'll remove as many or as few baffles as you like. His "standard" set-up is what I got, 3 baffles removed, remaining 2 have 3 half-inch holes drilled in them.

Sound is very subjective, so take all this as one man's opinion.
