I have 1 7/8" long tubes on my car and yes, stealth mode is really that quiet under normal driving or idling conditions. Once you stab the throttle and your rpm's go over 3500, the exhaust valves open up and let's just say, the police won't be very happy, lol.

This is my 3rd C7 (first z06 though). All with catless Xpipes

Stingray #1: TSP 1-7/8" no cats cam/blower

Stingray #2: TSP 2" no cats cam/blower
Changed to LG 1-7/8" due to TSP 2"fitment

Z06: TSP 1-7/8" no cats stock cam 2.3 blower

All of these options sounded pretty much stock with npp closed. All sounded pretty much the same when open as well. I did prefer the sound the 2" TSP made while driving but I just couldnt get them to fit as well as I wanted so I changed them out for LG's headers

I have 1 7/8 stainless cermatic coated with high flow cats , x-pipe and Billy Boat Fusion 3 NPP.
I have the mild to wild switch so I can close and open the valves at will.
Which is good as it is loud.
