-Was looking into doing headers on my 14 C7 Lt1 model. Should I change everything from headers to all the way to the tail pipe. or just do long tube headers. Only want to do it once So looking for best bang for my money an to sound like a full race set up. I do not live in a emissions check state either. thanks for the help

Do you have the factory dual mode exhaust? If you do just do long tubes and xpipe, ARH to me are the best for the C7. If you have the standard exhaust I'd do Akrapovic slip on only down fall is the cost but will sound insane.

Firstly, any of the major brands of headers will do the same thing. Regarding the mufflers, start with the headers and see how you like the sound. Then if you don't it is not a big deal to change the mufflers. Lots of choices, but B&B Fusions would be a top choice for me. I had them on my C6 and they we amazing.

If you do long tunes they are going to come with a new X-pipe anyways because your stock X will be too long. So do the LT's and X-pipe and try it out like davidtcpa suggested. I have NPP with just a Corsa X and it sounds really good. I can only imagine how much better it would be with Long Tubes. There is a video of a guy running just an X-pipe with NPP, and he has a remote microphone mounted on back of the car so you can really hear what it sounds like. It sounds like pure sex!!!

Like others have mentioned I'd also recommend going full headers, xpipe, and axleback.

Any of the major header vendors (Kooks, ARH, etc) sound/perform great. Pop on a set of Corsa Extreme or Borla Atak and it will sound disgustingly awesome.

Exhaust tone junkie here that has switched out setups more times than I'd like to admit

Another vote for NPP with LTs if you have that option. That combo can be absolutely brutal, especially with the fuse pulled.
