^Agreed - if you're not looking for loud it's tough to beat the Z06 Ti exhaust with how well it flows and the pretty cheap price. I think they go for around $400 on average.

Thats what I have righ tnow and am very happy with it. The ZO6 over axel is not just quiet but light and she gets throaty when you really get on her.


Lesson learned if your powerful no need to advertise.

The Z06 exhaust is plenty loud especially when you're H/C w/ LT's and ORX at WOT

I would love to have some dual cutouts before my Ti mufflers but can't justify the $400 just to be loud as hell when I want. I miss my T/A setup where I could hear the cam lope with the cutout open - sounded badass at idle and ridiculous at WOT. Part-throttle sounded like a dump truck though.

I've seen some C5 ZO6 install the cutout before the X-pipe and gain 8-10rwhp
from the Ti Catback.

N/A? I figured it was maybe 5-10 at best but wasn't sure what I would really gain being only H/C/I.

On Y-Bodys the exhaust is an X-pipe setup. Each manifold meets at the x head and runs down the tunnel and exits individually over the axle to the catback.
