An advanced search in C5 GEN for exhaust mod in the subject line turned up many hits (choose search arvhive). Several regarding A&A, but the threads wouldn't display. Wonder if the archive is offline?

My Cousin did that mod on his 99 Coupe. It's just an extra piece of pipe welded on a stock system to give better sound!

You can go to a local exhaust shop and have a piece of pipe welded from the turn that goes to your muffler right out the inside exhaust outlet. Basically by-passing your muffler, but only when you get on it.

I did it myself on my Corsa exhaust. Made a very noticeable difference. I love the sound! . . . Deeper, sort of a more exotic type of sound.

Edit: FYI - I also have TPIS long tubes, Borla cross pipe, stock cats, and a forged stroker running 11.6:1 CR, with heads and cam. So that might contribute to a more noticeable difference in sound, as compared to some who say they didn't hear much difference (stock maybe???).

I emailed Andy at A&A about flow with this mod. He told me that no flow comparison was done, but he felt that it would flow as good as, if not better than a Z06 ti system.
