From what I have seen, the C6 exhaust requires fewer bends. It goes over the trans/diff/halfshafts, then goes fairly straight into the top of the muffler and out the back bottom area of the muffler. The muffler in/out is more of a straight through design, whereas the C5 has a 90 degree bend going in and a 90 degree bend coming out.
