Default Npp exhaust!

Just purchased a set of Z-06 Mufflers.

The factory says 6hp, On a stock car. You would think on a car with headers.It would pick-up a least a couple more maybe 8hp or so!
Since the stock non -npp necks down 2 1/2 pipe to 2 1/4 into the
cans! Where the Z-06's are 2 1/2 into the cans! Perfect!
Oh where's ED, need to order the Mild to Wild switch!

Here's a preview, but don't expect the Z06 Cans to sound as aggressive as the NPP versions. They are apparently different internally.

LS3 + NPP + LG Pros + M2W

If you want to to have the bi-mode sound, and you didnt have the NPP option to begin with, make sure you tell Ed you need the NPP in a Box kit, not just the Mild2Wild switch. You have to use a vaccum system to operate the butterflies. You can get tubing and parts from GM, but Ed's self contained kit will be much cheaper and MUCH easier to install.

He is filling up on orders, so you might want to drop him a PM and let him know. If you just put on the Z06 cans, you will be in wild mode all the time.

I be hooking up on Ed's Mild to wild switch for sure! Jury's still out
On which way to go to run the flaps! My tuner has done them!
I was going to see him. Not sure if Ed's new box is ready for the masses
yet! That's probably the easy way to go for sure!
