Is there a market for stock mufflers with muffler mod already done??
Just like it says in title. I just put on Cora sports and took off stock 2006 C6 (no NPP obviously) mufflers with the DIY muffler mod done to it. I went with 7/8" holes straight through with the electrical plugs and high temp silicone to seal it up.... I would love to save them if I ever sell to put back on and sell the corsas, but they're too big!

Put an add in the for sale section and see if there's any interest. I've had good luck selling accessories there.

How do you like your Sports? I've driven a C6 with the Xtremes and found it a bit too overbearing. I think it would be hard to hear my music or hold a conversation, so I was looking at the Sports.
I want something louder than my stockers, but comfortably loud if that makes sense. My biggest problem with the stock exhaust is that you can barely hear anything from 0-2k RPMs.

When I switched cat backs on one of my C5s I tried to "trade in" my stock ones. The guy took me to the back of his shop and showed me a pile of stock units 5 feet high. I have no reason to believe that C6 stock units are any more rare. But maybe someone is returning a car to stock and is looking for a stock unit, though. List it for $50 and see what happens.

These things are heavy and im sure would cost over $100 to ship, so i'd sell local only probably.... I'm going to check if theres a market in scrap for this cause i remember a post recently of someone saying they got more for an exhaust than selling would have netted.... But that was with cats, not sure if the cats have something that is worth more...

HP, I'll try to take pics tomorrow. Scott, it's a night and day difference! The modded stock are great if you can't spend the money for an exhaust, but the sports are loud enough to sound awesome and low enough to not be obnoxious. The sound is a muscle car sound like a vette should be! I probably would have loved the xtreme as well but I didn't want an exhaust to annoy the neighbors. The sports are great, especially when you punch it!!!
