Found a couple guys on Youtube that have it. I asked if they liked it and they definitely recommended it. I guess a lot of it depends on the sound you want and what you already have as far as headers and what not. I like the way it sounds but I think I'm going with XS power. For what you get the price is incredible!

With stock manifolds it won't pop and crack anyway. If I were you, since you are keeping the stock manifolds. I would go with a Borla Stinger system. They are pretty deep and throaty. B and B is ok but they sound like a motorboat with the stock manifolds. Best thing to do is to look up different systems on youtube. You can find almost anything you want on there. That's how I decided on XS power.

There is a special right now for the XS Power 3 inch system. $699 shipped. Which, for a vette exhaust, is an epic price. It bolts right up and has a more mellow sound than the 2 1/2 inch system. Your car will breathe better too and it's made of polished stainless so it's a sweet deal. Here's the forum link with some videos. Superman09 can hook you up. Tell him Rohan sent you lol.

If you're interested in the XSPower system I made a sort of exhaust demo video with my GoPro camera from inside the car. Mines a otherwise stock Z06:

This one is also mine from outside the car w/ the camera on the rear fender. Little too much footage in the parking lot but I eventually did a roll on 1st-3rd with it. Sounds extremely badass IMO.
