I have a new C7 2017 Regular Stingray with no NPP and manual 7 speed of course. For a performance car I find that is too quiet and would like to add Borla exhaust but not sure which model will fit best on my car. I was also thinking about the XPipe. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Juan

Look in here at the for sale section, more than a few will work & make the car louder for sure. Borla. Corsa. BB, Robert

You can also cut your mufflers totally out from the car & put in r weld in a 2 1/2 inch pipe that deletes the muffler. A few post on that & the sound of it.

Juan, if you go with Borla is only a little louder go with the atak that is the loudest that Borla makes. If you look at corsa go with the extreme for the biggest diff the corsa is the way to go. I had to go per say with Borla due to having the NPP atak not really happy with it at all for the money to the sound increase over the stock sound at all. Just my 2 cents on it.. Robert

I would go with the Billy Boat bullet exhaust if I was in the market for "loud".

I have had Corsa for a few systems and they seem to be the only company that has eliminated the "drone" I M H O

If you go S-Type with the Borla X pipe that deletes the secondary cats it will be plenty loud. It also sounds way better IMO this way than going for the ATAK. The S-Type keeps the tne crisp and clean while being very deep. Then the catless Borla X pipe wakes up the sound and adds a bit more popping too.

It's my personal preference but I think the above setup sounds the best.

Hey,

Contact us for any Borla related products. We have sold hundreds of those x-pipes on the CorvetteForum.

A lot of people start with the x pipe and then add the axle back after!

Why is it that Flowmaster seems to get no love from the Corvette crowd? I was a Mustang guy in my younger years and that was my go to. I was recently listening to some YouTube videos of different systems, and found the throaty rumble of a flowmaster more appealing than the racier/exotic sound of the Borla or Corsa.

We sell a TON of Flowmaster stuff for the C7 - it's actually a very
popular selling exhaust

I think my best bet is to go with the Borla back axle Atak model 11881 for the Non-NPP version. I'm sure I'll get some sound from there and will not need to add the X-Pipe.

I'm on my 3rd Corsa and going to my 4th real soon and there is no drone. I had a Borla and that was just terrible inside the cabin!

What is the "drone"... Also I don't want something too too aggressive but as the car is at a stop idling where you hear the throaty sound.

I like the way the car sounds when you start in the morning that throaty sound but abit louder. Of course, as it gets warm the revolution drops and it gets to quiet and that's not what I want lol. A performance car should have some noise.

No doubt about it --- you want Corsa Extreme --- guaranteed to put a smile on your face every time you hit the start button (see Post No.16).
