car was fairly quite at this speed, drop to second at 60 all hell broke lose.

This is the most boomer thing i've read and I love it

People have to understand that not everybody wants headers. A catback is the first thing most do to their cars. Op I have the Corsa Xtreme 3 inch catback and love it. Real bark when you want it but great highway manners. Of course I'm biased.

It was just loud and had no type of tone to it, I was so shocked on how bad it sounded.I was pretty upset i wasted 300 dollars as I put the stock mufflers back on the same day. I plan on going with long tubes soon, but my question is why do people love muffler deletes so much? am i missing something?? Please let me know your opinions, I know its all about preference.

Op Sandman is selling his Corsa Xtreme catback...he is in Virgina. Great upgrade.

gentlemen. Question. I am getting the education of a lifetime in understanding diff exhausts. I saw a video of......Flowmaster 817746 Axle-Back System, it allows NPP function. He said on Tour, the exhaust goes through ONE side and on Track it goes back to both. Does this in any way rob performance in Tour using one side?
Is that a silly question?

And as I understand...only a few systems...catbacks, work with NPP? Solo, MBRP NO?

If you have the NPP exhaust (which I see you have a 1LE so you do) don’t upgrade the catback exhaust. Buy long tube headers or at minimum get some high flow cats. The NPP system is a great system and sounds AWESOME with long tube headers.

That's weird I did a muffler delete on my 2010 SS and I think it sounds great. Very deep and growling.

fredz · 03-05-2019, 10:36 AM

I am complete now!! Flowmaster axleback installed, Npp working nicely, and sound on both T and S are perfect! Just exactly what I was hoping. I also am doing a CAI soon but waiting for the unit to come in. Other than that just a few extra mods.....LED side markers etc. I am going to shoot that video I promised and get it on here for the fence sitters on exhaust to gain some info.

My goodness the underside of your car is dirty! How do you not get pulled over more with that setup and I assume your car as a daily driver?

I know, I know

It was a DD for about 3 1/2 years up until I cammed it, so the headers are looking especially grungy under there. Now its a weekend car with the occasional weekday drive. I just drive sensibly on the road, making sure to baby it around any authority figures. I don't really let er rip until I get to the strip.

I've only been stopped once, and that was only because he wanted to look at what I had and get a video of it idling

i think you're asking a 6th gen question.

MBRP doesnt make an NPP compatible catback/axle back for NPP equipped 5th gens
