Default Going to do it again

Looking at purchasing a 2017 LT1. My last corvette was 2009 so two questions??
Does the 2017 with M7 have Active fuel management?
If so any problems caused by aftermarket Cat-backs?

Thanks in advance

1. Yes, in Eco mode only for the M7
2. Not that I have seen posted.

The only cat back issues that I can think of would be with systems that don't the AFM valves built in. If the AFM pig tails aren't plugged into a working actuator, they will throw a CEL. Stock NPP mufflers sound awesome with some long tubes and high flow cats...

So long as you have NPP, though, no AFM valves required, right?
