I bought and installed a flowmaster catback on my dads c6 vette for fathers day a cuple weeks ago. Is there any hp gains from a catback on these cars? The mufflers wur about half the size from the stock ones and much lighter if anything else. It sounds really good too. I love the deep rumble. Btw I had to cut the right side over axle pipe cuz there was no way in hell it was going to fit if I didn't. Other than having to cut that pipe about an inch or so everything went pretty smooth. All the exhaust bolts came out without a fight with some pb blaster soaked on them.

lol. you need to see the stock cans on a 5th gen if you haven't. for one, they are the size of half a coffee table and second, they weigh about 15-20 pounds

Oh yeah the 5gen also lol. But the stock c6 muffler are not straight through they have a z inside them. One mod I do on the c6 zo6 is cut a hole in the muffler, remove the fiber glass and get a stainless band clamp and cover up the holes in the "Z" pattern in the muffler. The sound is close to a corsa with headers.
