Headers, no cats, x-pipe, Corsa Pros, MN6, and no popping on decel.
I have my DFCO set to almost the instant my foot leaves the pedal, so fuel and spark are completely cut off. Nothing but air in there on decel.
Increased fuel mileage by about 4 mpg also.

Can't says I do. My '00 did that and I does sound like the engine is F'kd. My grabs enough attention as it is, It doesn't need to announce itself. IMO

It must be the younger drivers who have never heard an engine with a glass pack muffler mounted on it. Even without mufflers a C5 can't come close to the popping one of those would make when the car was downshifted and the engine backed down. Do that late at night on a residential street and the lights would come on in all the houses. They were real ticket magnets. Every community had laws against them.

Here's a sound clip of mine from inside the car. It's a bit muffled but I think you'll get the idea.
