ZO6 units are a dime a dozen in the C5 parts for sale section. As for the Bullets get ear plugs with them They sound fantastic but boy are they LOUD.

Yeah, I have found quite a few, but all thus far have been spoken for.

My buddy with the LT's and Stingers actually does put earplugs in when driving the car.

Go ahead and get the LT's, see how it sounds with the stock catback, then if needed keep an eye out for the Z06 exhaust. Like others have said, you are not going to sacrifice significant HP with the stock catback in place till you find a good set of used Z06 mufflers

that is a possibility. I would prefer to go ahead and get catback at the same time and just get the install over with at one time.
