2011 ss Convertible muffler fuse pull question

Am I able to pull a fuse on my 2011 SS convertible to increase the sound of the exhaust system? I've been reading the forum about NPP (what does that stand for) exhaust fuse pull on the 2013 models, but what of the 2011 models?

Any non 1LE Camaro made before 2013 didn't have the NPP exhaust so there is no fuse pull

Get an aftermarket exhaust and it will sound better. Get headers and it will sound a lot better.

IIRC, the automatic 'verts have spring loaded flaps, nothing electrical. They should be just behind the trans but do a search to be sure and how to remove them.

It will sound like eight puppies getting neutered at the same time when the AFM kicks in.

Yes, I agree. I was looking at the Borla website and was impressed. The video demonstrated between the Touring, S type and ATAK. Wow. I like the S or ATAK. So when someone says "headers" is that the whole new system or only the front part attached to the motor. Is the exhaust separate? How much, for example, INSTALLED, for the S-type Borla on my 2011 SS?

If you plan on doing headers at some point just realize the ATAK is VErY loud.
