I see the op is an automatic. That's even better because he won't have to use the handbrake. Slip it into neutral and stay on the gas. FTMFW

You have a 2013. Do you have the dual exhaust mode? If so, those annoying little flaps control how loud your exhaust is at times.

It takes 5 mins to do the fuse pull to always keep them open.

I have a 21 ZL1 manual.
Mods
AR Headers
RotoFab
Corsa Exhaust
Lower pulley
When I start the car, it’s loud, going thru the gears, sounds great, but once I get into 4th gear, the sound goes silent, is this normal?

Yeah, it's a common issue with mods like yours. You can try installing an exhaust cutout for more control over the sound, regardless of throttle input.
