Car sounds pretty good. Couple questions:

Did you have the stock exhaust before or the NPP? I'm curious how the sound of the 3" Z06 differs from the NPP

Being a base, your manifolds are 2.5", did you swap the entire z06 exhaust or just a 2.5 to 3.0 changer to match the cat's to your stock manifolds?

my old post should answer most of your questions...i have an 09 c6 z51 m6 with NPP, i changed out the exhaust to Z06 which is 3" all the way back to my NPP mufflers which are 2 1/2"..worked out great....

I am considering that setup. I currently have LG long tube headers, HF Cats and Billy Boat axle backs and to be honest, they're too loud. Loud wouldn't bother me, but at the lower RPMs in any gear with greater than 1/8 throttle, it drones pretty bad. at cruising speed in any gear, you can't hear them and there is no drone at highway speeds. I love the decel pop...it's great. I like the setup on your car..nice.
