The over the axle pipe is slightly different. I don't think there's ever been an explanation as to why.

Exhaust

The reason for the change is that the Z06 differential cradle was used on all of the other Corvette models.

09 exhaust differences

The rear attachment points for the mufflers are the same. The pipe that goes over the axles are bent differently. Additionally, the rear portion of the X pipe is bent differently as well.
