And though you could create a switch for the exhaust it would be a pain, and no the switches will not work with out it hooked up. Maybe you should look up some threads on retro fitting or talk to Forza Steve

Yeah, it makes sense to ask them about the specific wiring options, and maybe even if their system could work in tandem with NPP in a Box.

I think the biggest benefit is the ability to control drone without further modifying the exhaust. Also, Quad tips are included and require no fabrication. When the valves are open, one of the pipes on each side is essentially a straight through pipe with little to no muffling.

Did you have the Dual-Mode functionality? What else did you install besides the exhaust?

The best solution some came up with was a manual switch, but you're better off just finding a nice aftermarket exhaust.

There is a product called NPP in a Box that apparently solves the problem of NPP functionality relatively easily.

Regarding the flaps, they will stay open all the time. If you want to control the flaps, you need to buy the NPP IN A BOX. This is for those who didn't have the NPP setup from the factory. I never done it, but according to the website, it only takes 5 mins for installation. http://www.nakidparts.com/id78.html With this, you will have access to control the flaps for, OPEN ALL THE TIME, OEM SETTING (3500RPM+ OPEN)
About how it sounds on the V6, for loudness, my MRTV1 is a little bit louder than the NPP, but the NPP is still pretty loud. What's best, is that the NPP is at the same time deeper!!
If I had the choice to go back, I would definitely choose the NPP for only spending $500 and maybe $180 for the NPP in the box.
For my MRTV1, I already spent 430 for the exhaust, 140 + 100 labor for the quad tips, 200 + 100 labor again for the SOLO J PIPES to get rid of the drones. =(

I have browsed around, but wasn't sure if the NPP in a Box is compatible with a V6 Camaro, since it doesn't explicitly state so. I'll probably end up contacting them directly to ask. If I could further program the switch to work with my garage door opener instead of the included fob without further modification, that'd be great too.
