Definitely worth it. I added Corsa exhaust to my last two Corvettes (C5 and C6). The NPP on my C7 Stingray was less $$$ than Corsa would have been. Plus, it looks better than regular exhaust, not to mention the enhanced sound.

This is one of those posts that should go into the funny post archive. Classic.

To me, it is the best value option of all. You get a great sound out of the exhaust that is controllable.
Moreover, you enjoy 5 additional horse power and 5 additional foot-pounds of torque too.
Lastly, the great look in the rear with the large polished 4" exhaust pipes.
Many thanks,

i didnt bother with NPP, i know i'll put a corsa on it someday. instead, that made getting a 2LT just a tad cheaper =D
sure wish i had black rims though.

If you are going to sell the stingray in a few years, GET IT because of resale value.
If you are going to keep the stingray for let's say 20 years, GET IT, it would cost you $50 a year to have it.
If you aren't going to go aftermarket for exhaust, NPP is a requirement in my book.

Good pick. Its not about the 5 hp or the bigger tips or the cost of the option. Its about the sound - you will be very happy the first time you switch from touring to track. It makes a HUGE difference in sound.

I am very happy every time I start the NPP exhaust in sport mode.

And when you get complacent with the NPP in Track mode and find that it's still not loud enough, it sounds perfect (IMHO) downstream of some long tube headers and high flow cats.
