Default What Catback do I have??

It was on the car when I got it. I put in Longtubes and offroad X-Pipe and it's still pretty quiet with the catback. If anybody wants to TRADE me for anything a little louder let me know! There is a video of it running here:

Looks like it could be the z06 ti exhaust, quiet at idle but gets kinda loud at wot. I switched to Stingers for the same reason.

Better shots of the mufflers would help.

Looks to me like Corsa Touring. I have the same cat back.

it def looks like the TI's off of the Z06. its a great exhaust system and sounds real nice with headers. I am also, changing it out for a set of B&B bullets. I want it loud!

Looks like the Ti Exhaust off the Z06. I traded my Corsa Indy's for a set of those. I liked the quiter setup when I had my Procharged C5.

Well I for sure know it's not the Z06 Titaninum exhaust. Could be either Magnaflow or Corsa. Both manufactures now engrave there names on the tips. If you really feel ambitious the name should be on the top of the muffler

It's not Magnaflow unless someone swapped out the tips.

Well I can say it's not GM TI, Corsa, BnB, SLP, Magnaflow, GHL, Hooker, Borla, Bassani. Look at how the inner tip is welded into the pipe to the outer tip. That is the cheap way to do it, and no c5 exhaust has the tips welded like that, that close to the muffler.
