Default 2012 ZL1 Exhaust Clip

Not sure this has been posted, i checked through a few forums and didn't see. So if it's a repost, then just delete it.. This thing sounds badass

Who the **** decided that they dont have to paint the bottoms of these new cars?

We got cheap plastic on the inside, they decided not enough people seen it and put it on the outside?!?!

This is coming from an owner and GM guy.

Sounds like a chambered style muffler, also i know the ZL1 is going to have the dual mode exhaust like the corvettes do that have butterflys that open up around 3,500rpm. This exhaust clip sounded like the butterflys were denfinately open the entire time.

^ is it controllable? i thought it depends on the flow that is the rpm range to force them to open...and man that is a sick sounding setup!

Im sure its just like the corvette's and there is no way to control it you got two options remove the fuse which keeps the butterflys open all the time or install a switch so you can have it open or switch it back to factory setup.

sounds healthy for sure! Looks like Gm got the exhaust right on this car, not like they say they did on the GTO's.
