Default NPP Exhaust Loudest option.

Hi All, new 2016 z51 owner .... Just installed a corsa x pipe and i was wondering which mode / settings will give me the loudest exhaust note . I pulled the fuse so that the valves are always open , but was wondering if any1 knew of anything else to enhance the sound . I have the engine sound management in track also but it seems like my two center exhaust pipes never get dirty but the exteriors get caked. Thanks in advance !!

You have done all you can by pulling the exh 2 fuse. Dash settings for sound management don't do a thing with the fuse pulled - valves are open all the time.

When the NPP valves are open, most of the exhaust goes through the outer pipes since that is the path of least resistance.

When you want some real noise especially if you have a manual with rev matching...get a Corsa Extreme exhaust and some headers...
