Your other option is headers. I'm running LG Super Pro's with catted 3" x-pipe and stock NPP with fuse 42 pulled. Nice bark at start up, very nice normal cruise speeds, women and children run scared when you run the rpm's. plus you can grab a good 40 rwhp with a good tune.

My last ride was a cammed C6Z with ARH headers and Corsa's. That car sounded really good as well, but my C7 sounds equally as good IMO

I have the Akrapovic exhaust with American Racing headers on my Z06 and I love the sound. I get compliments on it all the time... Worth every penny in my opinion..

Thanks for the response are you running LT or Mids. I really like the stock exhaust I just want it louder. How much did the headers run you.

I know that setup sounds amazing. Any sound clips?

I feel a little sorry for those I pass on the track - well, not really. Simplify your life and call Ben Herndon at Weapon-X.



Must have been an installation issue. I installed on my car with no issues.
I have same setup with corsa X and akra axleback on a 16 Z and the sound is amazing. No issue with the install or throwing codes. I did the install on jack stands in the garage. Simple procedure.

Like others have said, give Ben a call at Weapon X.

Per say for the cost of the Borla ATKA with NPP, I first put on LT headers with the 3 inch mid pipe first. With that being said then got the Borla cat back with NPP for the cost of what this system cost new and I will go to even say for a used system. It was not worth the cost in no more than it chged the sound of my cars with it on it to me really not worth the cost at all. Robert
