C5 ZO6 Exhaust System Recommendations
I would like some input on after market exhaust systems for my 2003 ZO6....Borla, Corsa, GHL, B&B, etc. I would like to have an aggressive sound on acceleration but quiet (i.e., low resonance on cruise)? I would appreciate your opinion. Is there a review link on this forum that someone could put me onto? Thank you.

hey whats up I have lg long tubes w/ race cats and B&B fusions flaps closed is like headers w/ stock exh. flaps open. when flaps open around town its just great and down shifting cant be described with all the spittin and farting going on back there 
the drone is there but not over powering with vales open.this only happens with engine under 2000 rpm and under load. ps. if you are under that much load in 6th under 2000 you should grab 5th you would be way out of power range and why stress on the crank and rods so much. I had the same problem when finding exh. and took a chance with the B&B 
I heard the corsa and borla and both sound nice from the outside but I wanted to have an option to shut it up if needed and belive me you close the flaps more than you think. would not change a thing

I have researched this issue on the Internet and I have decided to go with the GHL Bullets. I have read several postings from Corvette owners that have had Borla's, Corsa's and B & B's and they are sold on GHL. Nevertheless, it is still a matter of subjective preferences...it all depends on one's "lobes," if you know what I mean?
