XSPower 2.5" Catback reviews
#41
Xspower 3" systems are no longer available.
We however will be bringing out a 3" option of our own for the big power guys in the near future. It will be full 3" and no mufflers however lots of space to add some in if you like. We will be releasing info on this in the next few weeks.
For majority of c5s that are street cars and under 750hp, you cannot beat the Xspower 2.5" system!!

Any side by side comparisons of which? You really are not going to see much of a power gain if any from a catback, mainly a sound upgrade. When you start getting much above 750 hp the stock 2.5" starts to become restrictive so switching to a true full 3" can see gains then, however on a car with less power you will not see much if any

I just put this exhaust on. Oh man I am soo happy.
I have Cartek 4x package heads/cam, kooks long tubes with x pipe and no cats. 3.90 gear. 448 RWHP.
I went from the titanium to this. Its just barely louder at cruise. If I had a 3.48 gear it would be hard to tell.
Part throttle, idle, WOT, its just plain nasty. You couldn't want it louder unless you want to **** off your neighbors and be a look at me person.
I love the sound. I think I said that. I can't over estimate the nastiness.
If you wind the gears a little forget about it, the world stops to salute.
I have had a wide variety of exhausts on built 4th and 5th gen f bodies and a corsa and bola on a c5. This exhaust reminds of a gmmg on a 4th gen with heads and cam. Totally a nice cruise but awesome everywhere else. Not as raspy as gmmg, maybe a deeper rasp but just as heavenly.
