Default Add NPP exhaust?

My 2020 C8 does not have the NPP valves on the exhaust system. Can I have them added?

I am thinking that maybe this was a dumb question. If it was, it is OK to let me know that - gently.

It’s a good question. You can buy the NPP exhaust - but I’m not sure what you’d need to make the electronic valves work with the computer.

You won't be able to control the valves from the car's software. No wiring harness for them, no software for them, unless you get them from the factory. You could install the NPP muffler and leave the valves open all the time, if you just want the exhaust a bit louder. Might be able to find a take off muffler from someone who went aftermarket.

Try Billy Boat Exhaust. I bought there C7 NPP Exhaust and it comes with its own independent fob to open and close there valves. I believe they have made a NPP system for the C8

Check with the maker of the mild to wild switch to see if their controller works with the C8. it works on prior generations. You'll be able to manually open and close the exhaust using a fob.

You would be better off going after market. NPP is way to quiet
