Anybody replace NPP ?

Why? Was NPP worth the money? If you bought a new vette, would you choose NPP option or just go aftermarket?

I've been thinking about it.I'd go with a BASSANI system.NPP is ok,but the tips are weak looking and way to small.

NPP but you must also get the M2W so you can really control the sound.

I almost didn't buy my Vette because of the $1200 NPP add. The dealer and I compromised but I was the big winner. As soon as you add M2W, it is one of the most enjoyable aspect of the car.

I have NPP on my '08 and would order it again.

I have the NakidParts M2W switch and their NPP/Z06 Mild Adjustable Control Kit to fine tune the flaps in the closed position.

Just put M2W on my '08 Vert and love it. Can't wait to get Long Tubes on to get some real bark.

Unless someone wants a Really Loud exhaust, the NPP is the Best.
The NPP is loud, but not overbearing.
Personally I would not get anything else for an exhaust.
As mentioned, get M2W switch, and Collars to open it up a "bit" in closed position.
Just Perfect

I would skip the NPP purchase for the stock car and instead spend that extra money on a nice aftermarket system.

Can't beat the sound of Borla.

Wouldn't order a car with the NPP setup.

The tips are too small also. Way too small.

Your profile doesn't show whether you have and M6 or A6. I agree with you if you have the M6 but I have the A6 and B&B has said flat out there will be drone in the A6 even when the flaps are closed. Therefore I'm in the process of putting the NPP on my A6.
