Default Supersprint Exhaust

Have any of you guys heard this exhaust in person? I have scoured the internet trying to find a video or sound clips of this exhaust on a C5, and have even e-mailed supersprint with no luck. There are almost countless videos on youtube and some on supersprints North American website with V8 BMW's and Mercedes that sound pretty darn good. I know you really can't compare the two, but they can maybe give you an idea of how this exhaust would sound on our C5's. The one person that I have come across that has it says that it sounds like no other exhaust for a C5. He says that it has an exotic European sound, but with a distinct corvette rumble. I have seen countless posts where people are wanting an exotic sounding exhaust, so this might be something worth looking into.

Don't know if this is it. I "termed" Supersprint Corvette and this is what came up. Note the banner.

I'm not sure to tell you the truth. I know bmp design is the only authorized distributor in the US. I'll give them a call in the morning and see how much the catback runs along with prices for the headers and x-pipe.

dyno day at Supersprints shop in Italy
I figured it was a long shot. Looks like their gains where made with the aid of a K&N air filter "kit".

Sounds good If the price was right I would consider giving them a try.

Well, I just contacted BMP Design, and he told me that the exhaust is one of a kind and not like others on the market. He said that there is not much of a market here in the US for this exhaust due to the high price tag. High price as is $2,478 I can see why there is not much of a market...good lord have mercy.

Yes stingers are ALOT cheaper, but in my opinion you shouldn't choose an exhaust because it's cheaper. Research different combo's and find a sound that you are going to like cause you will have to listen to it every time you fire the car up. If the sound you like happens to be the cheaper exhaust then go for it, if not save a little more and go for one that pleases your ears. I'm not saying that I will buy this system, but I am also not ruling this system out either just because the cost is outrageous. I am just researching and weighing my options.
