Best Exhaust for an L99?! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hello,
I was wondering whats the best catback exhaust for an L99, i'm looking for a a nice rumble and growl not really to high pitch. Their just to quiet stock :/

Search U tube and this forum. There is a thread with almost every type of exhaust out there.

Cat back exhaust systems do not add any power. Find the one that sounds the best to you. I like my flow masters but always have been a flow master fan.

Visit a local club or car show. If you see a Gen5 ask the owner if he has an after market exhaust. If he does, Im sure he'd be willing to start the car for you and let you hear it.

If you listen to the exhaust on the internet, the sound is going to change depending what type of speakers your computer is supporting.

I run the Corsa and LOVE IT!!! Some say that it is a little too loud but I think it is just right, kind of quiet at cruze speed but when you stand on it she sound like a full blown race car!!!

Agreed with Pollock above. Go here:

and you can see all kinds. I ended up going with the SOLO Cat Back for our convertible and we love it. Was between that and the Borla "S" type for us..but the SOLO is built for little to no drone...and that was key. Unhappy wife equals...well..you get the rest. Here's a clip of our SOLO:

And here is information on the SOLO Cat Back: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?p=3473916#post3473916

and Axle Back : http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?p=3459809#post3459809

both with videos. I'm pretty sure the MACH XL for the coupe sounds similar.

Juiced1 · 09-16-2011, 03:44 PM

Corsa and Solo are a couple of our favorites.

BAD DAB · 09-16-2011, 03:49 PM

I have a L99. How does the Solo cat-back sound when the dreaded AFM kicks in and out? Would the solo axle back be better for the AFM?

IMO no system sound good when the AFM kicks in. I'd tune it out but Solo stays pretty quite inside the car in general making it some what manageable.

L99 + Solo high flow cats + Solo Mach XL exhaust = win!!

The video does an OK job of illustrating the sound. It is much more awesome in person! The Mach XL with J-pipes technology truly negates the drone.

I'm very impressed and would recommend to any Gen 5 Camaro L99/A6 owner looking for an exhaust solution that "smashes" the drone and delivers that old school muscle car sound.

Keep in mind, that the install of the cats and exhaust does not require a tune or void the warranty. Win... win!!

The team at Solo Performance is outstanding to work with and are champions of customer service.

- V8 Automatic Stainless Steel Mach XL with J-Pipes

We just did a L99 today.Kooks headers and the MBRP L99 cat back.It sounded real nice and deep.

bluetooth-ss · 09-16-2011, 06:06 PM

Running solo mach xl with j-pipes and am very satified with it.

doctorgpharmd · 09-16-2011, 06:16 PM

Recommend Flowmaster American Thunder, full 3" cat back. The best classic muscle car rumble for Camaro, as far as I've heard.

Buffnshine · 09-16-2011, 08:40 PM

Check out the Flowmaster Outlaw. I have several posts about it and clips on YouTube
