Exhaust Systems
I know this is somewhat subjective, but I would like to get opinions on systems for my C5 coupe. I want a system that has some "attitude" to it, some growl. I do not want my Vette to sound like a sewing machine. Any and all opinions are appreciated. Thanks.

Re: Exhaust Systems (DsC5)
Everyone has their likes and dislikes as far as sound. I have the CORSA Pace Car CAT back and truly love the sound when you get into it. The nice thing about CORSA is the fact that when you are cruising there is no resonance or roar in the drivers area. This is especially nice when you are cruising past ye ole black and white machines with bubble gum dispensers on top. Visit http://www.corsa.com and they have exhaust sound available for your listening pleasure.

Re: Exhaust Systems (jefe)
listen to all of them , because IMO they all have some advantages and some detractions. Corsa, Borla, BBT, PRT, GHL, and SLP all have faithful. Website sounds are not the best IMO and best to visit a local installer or visit a Corvette Show. We will rev 'em for you :thumbs:

That being said, my B&B PRT's gave me the 60's/70's muscle car rumble I was looking for.
At cruising speeds, you can hear yourself think. :yesnod:
At WOT, everyone can hear what you are thinking. :D :smash:

Re: Exhaust Systems (RedHot)
Anyone have or know where I can hear a sound bite of the Stingers? I heard the sLP Loudmouth sound bite that someone posted here, and that sounded pretty good.

I have and love the SLP loud mouth, but most will not want the roar these produce. I, My wife, & the daughters love it though! (the neighbors don't though!) :cheers:
