Z06 exhaust for sure, but I still think you should do the stripes, it really makes the car, just ask Crusher.

Bob, exhaust is a personal preference and I think the only reason to change it is looks and sounds.
Z06 looks good and has a nicer tone than stock older C5s (I have not gotten close a new one lately). It is not opnoxious and saves you about 20 lbs too.
Although my car has stingers on it now, I will be putting my Z06 Ti back one soon (hopefully before mojo cruise June 19th.)
If you can wait, check out the exhaust notes on some of the cars at the next challenge.

As of now my plans have changed again. It looks as if I will be driving down to exit 4 on the NJTP to pick up my trailer on Saturday. I have to get it home so I can put it all back together.
