Just love all this chatter about exhaust systems. It is VERY personnal!!!! There are so very many possible combinations that the final sound you achieve is quite variable. Me, I have Kooks long tube headers, no cats, and Borla two tube cat-backs. Very aggressive, but I love it. Does it drone below 1700 RPM. Yup. But I am never there so not an issue at all. Also own an 07 Mustang GT with just Flowmaster cat backs. VERY nice sound but not in the same league as the Vette. Bottom line, go to a Vette rally and just check out the systems us Vette lovers have installed. I am sure there will be may different combos. Just pick one you like. We all love to show them off!!! Better yet go to the gathering in Carlisle, PA if you can. Every possible combo will probably be there. LOL

when i bought my 01 it came with Mid America Motorworks Quad Power exhaust. i don't know much about exhaust but when the salesman started the car and i heard it the deal was sealed. it's not super loud but its throaty sounds i wouldn't say it compares to some of the mustangs mentioned above but it works for me.

The other day I saw some kid revving a C5 with real loud pipes and I just had to laugh. Sounded ridiculous. Reminded me of me with my 51 Merc coupe at 16 y/o with Cherry Bomb duals. Did get me L$$d a lot though

There is nothing more subjective in the automotive world than exhaust sound. It's damn near pointless to even ask on an Internet forum what is a "good" sounding exhaust. You simply have to hear them.
