If you want VERY loud go with the B&B Bullets or Borla Stingers. I had both systems and they sound awesome, but the drone in Coupes is enough to drive you crazy. I still have the Bullets but I dont drive mine everyday. Good Luck!

I'll have a set of Borla Stingers in a couple of weeks if you're interested.

They are the round quad pipe style. I live in Philly area. $650

I have the NXT's you are asking about. They are not polished but they are stainless. I think they sound great. I don't have headers yet so I can't say how they are with those on. For the money, I think they are well worth it.

GHL's are great, but you need to hear several in person to decide.

SLP sounds sick! I have a Loudmouth set for sale if interested... I have borla sitingers on my Z06 and LOVE THEM, also the GHL sounds pretty sick! As for emissions, you can pass with any exhaust configuration as long as you have a good tune. For example I had kooks long tubes, kooks off road x pipe (no cats) and SLP loudmouth on my FRC, basically straight pipped all the way, had the car tuned by a local vette shop and I passed with flying colors in GA... as long as they don't look under the car for cats (which is very hard to do on a vette )
