Do you need to pass emissions? If yes, then don't go catless...

And yes, you should install all of your power mod's prior to getting your tune. At least this 1st round of mod's. Do the CAI, headers, etc and then tune it when you're done. If you add something after the tune, then you'll have to retune to get the best results.

Tune is the last piece of the puzzle after each round of mods.
I'm honestly looking for a really nice/ loud exhaust. I'm curious to how the kooks LT headers with cats sound, but either way at least the ZL1 has the NPP exhaust so if it's too loud, i'll just keep the flaps closed. Yeah i mean i guess if i get the offroad pipes, getting an inspection would be a problem. How do you even go about that? And I'm still confused on which intake to get because K&N is like 900$ which is ridiculous.
