Bigfoot Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 OK, gonna try again....Price is between $400 and $600 used. If sound is the only consideration (not performance), what would you chose for a stock C5?OK, it worked....Thanks in advance for you participation.

Guest Kens06 Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 I have a set of Borla Stinger duals on my Z and compared to the PRT's on my old Z they suck!!The sound and resonance freq /dB issues depend on other exhaust mods!!Headers, different cats, x-pipe vs h-pipe, 2 1/2 vs 3"!If you decide on Stingers and aren't in a big hurry, that could help finance my PRT's!!BTW, I didn't vote.ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZ FASTEST Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 I'd get the stock titanium Z06 muffs for about $400 on eBay. They weigh half as much as the others listed and don't produce annoying resonance around 2000 rpm in 5th and 6th gear cruising on the freeway.They don't do much to the tone of the exhaust though!

Desertdawg Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 Mine has Magna Flow, it's pretty tame, so for sound I would vote Eddie's Borla's....P.S. I loved the Borla mufflers I had on the 82. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigfoot Posted November 2, 2006 Author Share Posted November 2, 2006 Boy, dead heat so far. :D The only ones that I've heard (where I was told what they are) is the B&B Bullets...and I did like those. Maybe if I can make it to the Saturday lunch, some of you guys with after markets can let me hear them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dewey Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 Why would you want just the mufflers when you can get a whole Z06 for $600???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigfoot Posted November 3, 2006 Author Share Posted November 3, 2006 Why would you want just the mufflers when you can get a whole Z06 for $600????Why ??? and where would one get whole Z06 system for $600?I'm more interested in sound than performance. I'll eventually get headers and hi-flow cats. But one step at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P51tj Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 The BS call was probably on post #5. You can get Z06 catback for about $400-500 on the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phoenix FRC Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 I have a friend with a used C5 exhaust for sale, I think on the cheap side like $400.00 and its all stainless steel. I think its the stingers or the B&B, I know its not the Corsa.BTW, I have a Corsa X pipe never used, if you get a Corsa exhaust you'll want the X pipe.I have the Corsa and love it. I have the LG motorsports Pro series long tubes with the x pipe and my exhaust turns all heads. Anyway, I sent him a PM, I'll post it up for you as soon as I get it sorted out.
