Just installed the ATAK "rear section" axle-back today. Not nearly as loud as I was hoping. It sounds good, but still too quiet at idle and during "mild" driving. I suppose I'm trying to recreate the awesome sound of my Pontiac Firebird formula that I owned years ago. I'm still not quite there yet.
I would guess that the factory resonators are the thorn in my side right now. |

If it is an auto, yes indeed. If it's a 6M, then they don't really do much of anything.

It is an auto. X-pipe added to my shopping list. Seems like Chevy went way overboard in trying to make this 6.2L quiet. |

I have the ATAK and love it. I WILL be adding headers in the future.

X-pipe ordered for my L99 with the ATAK axle-back. Hopefully putting it on this weekend. There's a lot mixed opinions it seems, about how annoying the afm gets after an x-pipe install. I purposely want to hear and find out for myself so I can pass along the information from the experience. Computer tune in the future either way, though.

i have them on my ss they sounded good as a cat back but after doing a stroker, head work, cam, LT, and cat delete way toooo loud looking at cats and maybe a couple vibrant resonators.

Ok. So, my 2010 L99 now has a Borla ATAK rear section axle-back, and an x-pipe. Finally, the car sounds like it should. I think people who have the L99 and want a louder, muscle-car sounding SS, should consider the x-pipe as the first upgrade. The borla atak mufflers create a good sound, but for those who are seeking volume, those resonators must go!
I think the car is finally loud enough for me, so I probably don't need headers. But I'm gonna get 'em anyway! |

I did Borla attack and x-pipe, sounded AWESOME! Then I did headers and a cam and it was too loud and raspy under acceleration. Idle was awesome. Now I have switched to the s-type and wish there was something in between as these sound great at accel but too weak on idle..

I think headers is where I'm going to stop. I just want it a little louder

I do love the way my L99 sounds right now. Can definitely hear the V8! I guess i'm just somewhat baffled at why my car isn't any louder than it is. I owned an LT1 350 back in the day, and a cat-back alone made that thing sound mean and sinister! So if I add Long tube headers, and this 6.2 still sounds more tame than my old 5.7, I'm gonna be head scratching for sure. Last edited by Joe Schmo; 08-03-2017 at 02:06 AM. |

Yes and Yes again. best exhaust imo. quiet when you want it to be and loud when you need it to be. I am adding Kooks LTs to my setup very soon. My neighbors are going to hate me
