Default Why I didnt get NPP!!

Borla's system coming!! Dual angular CTS-V style exhaust. Will match the rest of the car! CANT WAIT. Getting as soon as it hits Zip Corvette's inventory.

Wonder if they will have a aftermarket "NPP" switch for their adjustable exhaust.

personally I don't care about the switch, I do see how it is nice to have in certain areas though. Who knows. I'd imagine it can be done without much issue. Electrical wiring, routing of wires and placement of a switch. Car stereo similar really. But yea I love the borla sound and previous products.

Not to mention its angular and DUAL! WOOT! I just love the Lambo/ CTSV coupe's exhaust dimensions. Very next Gen imo.

thanks Borla!!

Wasn't sure if that was manual or electronic switch. But cool! Can't wait and hope it's not too pricey. This might be all I do to my car. Plenty fast as is.

Pretty sure you need NPP for this to work with their dual mode option OP. Sounds great but you will have to get the stand alone system. no dual for you :P

I like the tips - they could be a bit larger, tho, to more fully fill the space b/n them and the surround.

I understand what you want, but if it filled it more, there'd be no way to clean around them. In which case, they could be hi temp plastic or non-polished metal.

Corsa has a similar squarish exit but I think the classic corsa tips in black work better for me. But I'll have to see. Regardless on my white car the exhaust has to be black.

The sound was awesome. I'm assuming the valves would be plug n play with the existing NPP system?
