Probably a dumb question - does that mean cutting the front of the X-pipe/at the end that touches the cats? Or replacing them?

Post-catback-install options? - too loud, NPP thoughts. . . .

Let me preface this with - I'm probably a bit older and/or more boring than most on the list. The car is meant to be daily-driver-*capable*.

I ordered and had a local shop install ZL1 Corsa XPipe...

Electronic insstruments could be more useful - does anyone out there reprogram them?

I feel like, especially as it gets cool, I'd want to run a checklist: Is the engine (OIL) warmed up, are the tires 'green not blue' yet, and then when done just see the digital speed readout.

Oh yeah, and I'm worried about the ZL1's more aggressive Alcantara bolsters from how I get in and out. It could almost be said these days I'm 'twice the man' who bought the 2010, sadly. . . .
