Default Which exhaust system is this?
My FRC came with a number of aftermarket parts. The cat-back exhaust doesn't have any markings on it at all. Might any of you be able to identify it?

I'm totally new to Corvettes so I can't make a comparison, I don't even know what the stock exhaust sounds like. That said, this exhaust sounds pretty great. It's moderately loud under all conditions - idle, normal driving, wide-open, and overrun. The burbles and pops on overrun are especially intoxicating. It's a bit loud for my tastes, but it's perfectly reasonable for normal driving. There definitely is significant drone in a narrow band of the low RPMs, but I only just noticed it today when I was driving up a long hill in 6th gear and forgot to note the RPM. Downshifting to 5th made it disappear. Fit and finish is pretty nice.

I want a Z06 exhaust though.
