Corvettes have their own sound...I think that's what he's asking? They don't sound like the typical f-body. Almost like a Viper to me.

With the trans in the rear, there is nothing in the way right behind the engine. So the X pipe is immediately after the headers.
Really gives them that scream.
Mine is similar, although nowhere near that fast.
