Anyone running longtubes with bulletmuffler/resonators in place of the cats?

Is anyone out there running longtubes with bullet mufflers or resonators attached at the end of the headers in place of the cat?

If so, any pictures? How does it sound? How's the ground clearance?

Not long tubes, but AS&M midlengths with the collectors modified/extended straight back. Not bullets, but Borla XR-1 shorties. The only time the Borlas ever hit anything was back when the car was lowered with the front end down 1.8".... at normal ride height it isn't a problem.

Sounds very loud, be bearable.

Do you have any raspy noises with the bullet muffler? And do you think there would be enough room to put a bullet muffler on each side of the y-pipe?
