I use track mode 100% of the time. I've been debating on Akrapovic Evolution system for over a year now but really want to hear it on another C7 Z06 before I commit to spending that kind of coin...

Fuse pulled always open making some sweet sounds.

I guess with your last poll option it must be "ala mode."

I’ve got my Stingray with the a Borla Xpipe, NPP and the fuse pulled. Sounds really nice and the xpipe gives it a bit more bark. Previously, I had the Xpipe with Hooker Blackheart muffler deletes. It could wake the dead and it was amusing seeing people jump at the gas pumps when started the car at the gas station. After awhile, it got a little too obnoxious for me. Maybe in the future I’ll try the bb bullets. Those look awesome!

No npp here, so it is the Kooks headers/Corsa Sport sound!

Hmm, surprised the OP is asking! You can set NPP so it's always in a specific mode "regardless" of Drive Mode. I set mine in "Always Track Mode." That is the loudest where Butterflies are closed in most cases up to ~1700 rpm. They do start open for a short time.
I set Steering as "Always Sport Mode." It's in the Owner's Manual.
No such option for Throttle Response.

Same here. I threw the fuse out the first day of ownership. The second day of ownership I ordered the Borla. At 37,000 miles I bought the Range. Never had issues with my A8, but thought the Range would be a good tangible insurance policy. So far so good after 93,000 miles. Most reliable and fun car I have ever had. Love the sound.
