Is it worth it to install a crossover x pipe on the C7 Z06?

I think so, yes. I'd like to do it to my 19 ZR1, but I have to keep it stock for warranty purposes. It made a big difference when I did it to my 16 Z06. Sounds much better as well.

Previous owner put the EOS X-Pipe on my car so I'm not sure where to sound like before the X-Pipe but I do know I'm happy with the way it sounds now. The kid next door who grew up listening to my sixth gen Dodge Charger with cutouts starting up cold for many years and then turned around and got himself one of the Camaro z71s which is really loud, actually told me back in the summer time that when my garage door is closed and I auto start my C7 and sound management is set to track, he can hear it in his house. So I guess it's pretty loud.

I was able to buy the now extinct catless Borla 60547 X-pipe back for my 2019 right before they stopped making them. I really like it and it really adds to the exhaust note. Especially the down shift barks with the M7.

I did the same. The borla X pipe is like gold trying to find one for sale. I think it’s the best sound added with my AWE touring exhaust without doing headers.
