Default Best exhaust

Well this will not be popular but, my friend who has a c6 grand sport with factory dual mode exhaust came by this week after installing an on/off baffle switch [works off fuse ] on his car . With the touch of a button he could control the baffles in his mufflers . While it did sound good going through the gears, we both preferred the sound of the closed baffles. Food for thought..................

Good choice.

This is what I went with about 6 months ago. I also have the borla x pipe and I like the sound. I guess where I'm used to it it doesn't really seem that loud to me anymore but it definitely growls and gets compliments. I may do headers one day but for now just going to roll like this a while. It sucks this sound good stuff is so expensive!!
