Just bought these off an eBay seller out of Indiana. Install is kind of a pain, pipes were enlarged just barely enough to slide on after beating on them and the pipes on the car. Definitely snug fitting which isn't bad but did cause a lot of cursing and sweat.
Hardware that comes with them is crap. Clamps were fine for the pipe to old exhaust, the hanger and tip clamp had to be thrown out and stronger U bolt clamps were needed after bending the supplied band clamp bolt from tightening and tip still not secured.
All that said, 2 hours for an hour job in the driveway...the sound is phenomenal on my otherwise stock exhaust. While they seem cheap and not a full cat back, you do get a great sound. Reminds me of a New edge mustang with Borla stingers.
In the first picture it actually has the stock mufflers and tips, they are just so black and dirty you cant see them, can kind of see them in the 2nd picture. And yes the garage is to shitty for it to live in lol
nice c4! iv heard good things about those muffler eliminators. Next thing would be a X-pipe in place of that giant resonator, iv heard you can gain up to 10hp by removing it.
I was torn between the muffler eliminators and replacing the resonator with an X pipe. I went with the eliminators because I could do it myself and wouldnt have to take the car somewhere, other people working on a car they dont care about, and letting other people drive my cars is my biggest pet peeve. However I think these muffler eliminators plus an X pipe would be way to loud. Its a very very good tone right now. After putting them on and revving it up in the driveway I was kind of disappointed. At idle it reminds me of a 5.3L silverado or avalanche, has that faint burble sound to it and is pretty quiet. Driving it has proven otherwise though, I would say the sound is almost perfect. I feel like im driving a v8 lt1 again! I just wish it would spin the tires as easy as a solid axle fbody, it seems either down on power, or the IRS just gets traction better. It does have some nice eagle f1 GSD3 rear tires on it to though.
its pretty common on the corvetteforums, You get these guys who buy corvettes and want them demodded, Iv seen it 3 or 4 times over the last year iv been on there.

Probably not down on power, the problem with Corvettes is mainly the super tall 2.59/2.73 or 3.07 gears in the diff; that combined with better weight distribution over the rear end and wider/stickier tires stock. Put some 3.73's in it and it will wake up and light up tires without need of a supercharger.
