I had DynaTech's 1 7/8" headers on my C6 when I installed the FlowMasters. Sounded great on start up, but, at highway cruise the drone was horrific, to the point that no conversation could be had. Removed them after less than 1 hour of operation. Went with the Corsa Sport dual tips. Same sound. Zero drone at cruise. Guess you get what you pay for! Good luck.
