You had a 18 and now a 19 and you feel something different in the stock 19 tune??

My 2015 doesn't fart but I wish it did....

timmyZ06

Why exactly?? You feel the car more responsive? I know 19's have few updates, rear control arm, fuel , tranny, rear diff gears, cooling and few others stuff. But i dont expect my 19 to act different compared to my 15. But its cool if you could feel a difference!! Dont mind explain how exactly it does feel different??

The 2nd video that guy is on this forum. And i don't think that sound at 2:22 was his car but more like wind noise from the camera before it gets edited out?

Also that guy has an aftermarket xpipe, so it's not the stock xpipe.

So i think it's an auto thing.

My 2015 Z06 did not burble & crack on deceleration, but my ZR1 does (but not as drastic as the one in the video)

I don't know, it sounds a lot more like the exhaust crackling than wind noise to me and you can also hear it again at 4:06 when he takes off.

My new '17 Z , 7M in rev match upon downshifting has a distinctive, loud "crack" sound, just one, and a few burbles. I swear it's a backfire.

I agree with the others, it's an A8 thing. My '18 M7 Z07 doesn't do it. Rev match gives me a bit of noise on downshifts but that of course isn't the same as the burbling/crackling exhaust sounds in the video clips above.

Do you have an A8 or an M7 and what year is it?

My old C6GS with long tubes, no cats and a borla axleback was crackle and pop galore at any RPM on decel. I missed that so much.

I don't really mind too much now because the trade off is a more exotic sound, to go with the exotic looks of this generation, but it would be cool to get that back. But i guess it's all in the tune.

Same with my C6. I didn't tune it for the long tubes. I just drove it with the CEL.

Then i cleared it before i traded it in for my C7Z lol.

My wife and I drove together in both cars from day 1, and we both immediately thought the exhaust on the 19 was louder. Makes no sense and don't know why. It doesn't pop and burble very much, but more than the 18. Early on I noticed 1st gear was not as smooth through the rpm and maybe more responsive. Then after I got home (3000 mile drive) on my own roads, I started noticing if I short shift to 2nd and slowly rolling into the throttle from 2000 rpm up, at around 4000 rpm the tires break loose unexpectedly and not at WOT. The 18 never did this on the same road, same conditions, etc. It feels like more torque at certain rpm. Its like when I used to race sport bikes, I had a bunch of the same bikes. Some stock motors pulled harder. So maybe just differences in build tolerances. On the other hand, my 19 burns some oil and drive train is louder. There is a bit of whine in the trans or diff, and torque tube. Has not gotten worse then it was from day 1.

My 2019 Z06 M7 does make some of these noises, as others have mentioned with the rev match turned on. It's a great toy to play with coming up to traffic lights, just to hear the sound. I had one nice loud one today too as it was burbling down. Not so much with a warmed up engine and idling and just revving it some, but you don't get really into the higher rpms for the dropoff like you might with rev match or accelerating hard in gear and then letting it slow down again in gear that seem to make those lovely noises.....gotta put a GoPro back there sometime and record some of them!
