Default I need an X-pipe ?

I have a 2006 with the A-6 trans, I have installed a Corsa Sport system. The car sound better than stock but still a little to tame for my blood. I would like to install a X-Pipe but no one knows of one that will work with the A-6 trans. Please advise me have you installed one? or know of one that will work? I know long tube headers is what most say, but I live in California and not willing to deal with the smog problems. Thanks for your reply.

You should be able to find one at any of the major Corvette suppliers, and any good muffler shop should be able to make or install it for you.

X-Pipe will make your Corsa's quieter. Long tube headers will make a difference if you want something that sounds better. If you are worried about Calif smog, just find a "Corvette Friendly" smog station. They are all over the place. In any event you are not due for a smog test until the car is 5 years old. Just my thoughts.....anyone want to add??
