The Manzo X-Pipe you can get for $200 weighs around 18-19 pounds and has the same dimensions. I did get different studs, nuts, and new OEM gaskets for it. Only difficult part was lubing up the rearwards pipes to slide into the axle pipe easier.
Back to back it's hard to notice the power difference since mine is a LT1 but with Solar's ported TB and intake it does run faster than a stock 6-speed Z51 that I tested against.

I do love the Corsa sound more but instead of spending $400-$500 for the power of a Borla just get the cheap Manzo one and be happy.

Use an exhaust spreader to open up those pipes on the back and make them slip on easier.

Where you can find all the best and most reliable parts from quality vendors; Ebay.
But seriously it was cheaper than the Google Store since on Ebay they did free shipping.

I didn't have one but just some dish soap worked wonderfully. Hopefully those help the next people or me when if I get another one.

Pretty sure this is because the X-Pipe deleted the pup cats. If they haven’t already you can bet they’ll start selling a new replacement X-Pipe like Corsa has that leaves the cats in place.

I’m considering selling my C7 and will be removing my Borla 60547 since I’d rather sell to a forum member rather than give the stock X-Pipe and Borla to the dealership.

If anyone is interested, PM me and we’ll work something out. Located in LA, but happy to ship anywhere. Still have the original shipping box.

1st its the good bolt on Borla (no china crap)that eliminates the unmonitored secondary cats. I used it very little on my 2015 and removed it when I sold the car. The mid pipe is just like it came out of the box, clamps and all. $400 is what I need.
