Exhaust question
I'm looking for a great sound on my 2007, I had a 2011 Mustang GT 5.0 with the GT500 exhaust that sounded awesome on acceleration but very quite while at steady highway driving so am looking for the same for the vette --- so what would be my best bets?
Thanks

I just put LG Super Pros with the high flow cats, and when they were doing the dyno pulls, two "Mustang guys" came from inside the speed shop to check out what was singing sweet music on the dyno 
They were very surprised it was a vette, and the more I bragged about how a Mustang sounded, they complimented the sound of the vette with headers and stock NPP exhaust.
If you go with the straight (cat delete) pipe, as yours is, it is even louder...

I too had a 5.0 at one point and I understand what your exhaust setup was like - adding the gt500 axle back produced a good sound when you were on it but relatively tame and quite otherwise. I would never usually steer someone to the touring level of Borla exhaust but it may fit the bill you are after. I would suggest listening to their s-type though. I went with the atak, I ilke it a little louder.

Went to a Corvette show yesterday. As I drove up to park, the guy at the entrance asked if I had a Borla. Told him they were Bullets. He said that is the best sounding exhaust he had ever heard. Same comment from my neighbor who has an SS with NPP. Had them on my '06 and got a lot of compliments on that car, too. No brainer for me to put them on the '13.
