My new Akrapovic exhaust on my ZO6!

Overall I am happy with the look and sound of this system. I thought that the tips were A.) a little big and B.) stuck out a bit too much, but the carbon fiber tips on a black car kinda blend in, glad I did not get the polished tips, I think it would be too much. As far as how far they stick out, they really don't seem to be that bad. They still kinda blend into the rear of the car.

A little drone in the lower rpm's: 1500-1700 or so, at about 1800 rpm you are driving out of it.

Nice exhaust note. Very deep and it has a lot of bass. I could not believe it when I first fired it up...I was like, where did all this bass come from?! When the valves/flaps are open the ground shakes. Mucho bass and sound!





A few(!) pics from today! (video up soon!)

:iagree: those carbon tips look really good and the polished would have been too much. Am an not sure, the straight on shots look like they stick out, but from the side they look just right.

I may have seen you a couple sat.back. Was that your car followed by a couple other vetts running the ALLEY headed toward Ft. Lauderdale? I was returning from a cruise and headed home when I spotted the cars. :)
