I'm a new 2007 C6 Z51 PP owner. Love this car and can't wait for spring. The car drove great on my test drive and so far it's a dream. The only thing I want to change is the exhaust note... but just a little.

I'm not a racer and I'm not looking for a screamer. I just want a little more guts from the engine at idle through cruise speed. The stock pipe is just a little bit too mild for me. I've thought about the BB Wild to Mild NPP kit, but I think it may be overkill. I don't want a highway cruise to become an annoying thing with drone or too much additional sound level. I'm in the recording business and I have good ears so it's just a bit of growl I'm looking for without too much additional sound level.

I'm looking for experienced users advice on the best 'mild' upgrade for my exhaust tone to just put a little more hair on the beast if you know what I mean. I guess I was thinking Route 66, but I don't know what I'm talking about (other than surfing the web and this board) and I haven't heard all these systems in person at all. I welcome your advice and hope there's a bit of a discussion about who likes what the best!!

Thanks all!

The B&B setup you mentioned are the Fusions. I have them and they are great!! However, they are probably one of the more expensive exhaust setups.

Corsa Sport. Easy install, no hassle with wiring or vaacum lines. If they're too loud (mine aren't) you can always add the "touring" x-pipe later. Watch the forum classifieds and get a nice used set for about half price.

I just had the Fusions installed a few weeks ago (removed a Flowmaster cat-back), and I am a little disappointed with them in the open position. I thought they would be a little louder, but maybe they just need to 'season' a bit. I'm in L.A., so no headers for me.

Hopefully I will be doing a Edelbrock blower in a year or so and that will improve the sound!

Best exhaust is in the ears of the beholder.

Best advice is to find another fairly stock C6 with the sound you like and ask what he has. Car shows are good places to find mild modded cars.

Mine are very loud in the open position. However, I have headers, and a cam.

Toxic c6

Corsa sport or Corsa Xtreme. No drone cruise just a nice quiet exhaust note. Normal accel sounds amazing not too loud just a nice growl and at wot you get a nice crisp not too loud exhaust note.

C7&7

I went with the Borla stingers, however If I were in the market to switch I think I would go with the GHL setup. The GHL setup is very reasonably priced and sounds great.

I do love my Borla Stingers though. Make the car sound pretty aggressive.
