C6 & C6ZO6 cat-backs INFO
Hi everyone, can you tell me, what's the different between C6 and C6ZO6 cat-backs?? it's could be the C6Z06 fit on C6 or rather?? because the last gen was same, i mean between C5 & C5ZO6 so what about the new gen?
Thanks
Thanks

The C6 is a 2.5" exhaust. The C6 Z06 is a 3" exhaust with the vacuum controlled butterfly valves. I would guess you can install a Z06 system on a 6spd c6. You would just figure out how to hook up the vaccum system. I highly doubt it will fit on thA4 or A6 C6 because of the transmissions.
