the factory titanium catback/exhaust that comes on the z06 is the next one as far as being quiet.

looks much better than the oem but the sound differance is very very small, I had both and was very dissapointed in the sound of the ti.

I disagree, the ti's sound about the same as stock but when you romp on it they come alive.

How does this system compare to the factory catback as far as sounds? Can you send me some pics? How much do you want for it?

not many spend much time at "5,500 rpm's" ...but your right about that at 5500 rpms they sound some better than the stock ten times better

had both systems plus Borla drag, Corsa Touring (which is for sale) and the Ti was the biggest waste of time and money (for me) by far!! (for me)

strongley recommend that the op go to a few cruise ins and listen in person and not get confused and swallowed up in the forum hype when it comes how "you" want "your" vette to sound!!!... I have spent some big bucks on exhaust and am expecting BB Bullets this friday and are hoping they sound the way "I" want them too!!
