who sells axle back pipes. I need them reasonably quick. Track event next week end, and my muffler broke

StreetSpeed

Borla 12649 for the C5. You can find them on Amazon prime for like $450. That's what I use and it sounds like Satan. Don't bother if you frequent tracks with sound restrictions though.

This is my dd with the Borlas at Charlotte. They are really not that bad on the street unless you really lay into it:

Any idea how loud in Db's these pipes are? Any drone? Way too loud for occasional street if you don't open it up? My aftermarket mufflers keep cracking due to the goat trail roads around here. Thanks in advance.

They put my stock C5Z over 100dB... ear plugs on any drive over a half hour loud. And they didn't sound the best in my opinion, but they do make a lot of noise.

StreetSpeed

They're loud. I used turn downs and cone baffles to pass a dB limit of 96 and they were right at 96 with all that crap in them. Definitely over 100 uncorked. Don't think you could stand them very long on the street, though my car has is stripped so may be a little more bearable in a car with an interior.

rabrooks

Thanks for the info.
I'd be ok with just a set of pipes made a muffler shop but I don't have time to get the car to a shop I trust. So if anyone has a pair they want to sell let me know.

dhowdy

Well actually I do... just not sure how I'd get them to NC.

rabrooks

That's easy. Put'em in a box and take'em to the ups store or Fed Ex store or Office Depot, Staples etc. and ship'em 2nd day. I'll paypal you. How much do you want for them.

Is your car stock driveline? Thats pretty loud and awesome if it is! I'd like to pick some pipes up that don't effect anything with the motor.

dhowdy

Let me gather all the pieces and make sure I have everything, my garage is a mess. I'll get back to you shortly.

rabrooks

Eagerly awaiting. I think I just need two pipes and two clamps unless there are extra pipes to get over the axle. 2009 and up is slightly different than previous years
Thanks

I have some over the axle pipes that I cut off stock mufflers (cut right at the muffler). Make an offer if you're interested. Of course you'll need to have a muffler shop attach a mounting bracket and tips out the back.

dhowdy

Well I found the pipes but not sure where the brackets are... this kit uses brackets that mounts the exhaust to the rear cradle in the same place as the sway bar instead of the stock hangers.

I just put two turn downs on after the X-pipe.

Loud as hell inside the car, but not that loud outside. Works well for the track as they're a heck of a lot lighter than axlebacks.
