I will be installing a Borla S type exhaust rear section for my non NPP C7 in about 2 weeks and also installed a K&N air filter.
Now lets see what HP extra I should get.
Can`t wait and see if I wake up neighbours and `payback` for those who drive by with ugly loud exhaust.
I`ll have the OEM muffler rear section sitting around . If anyone interested , let me know
 
thks for the warning,
Best part is that there is no insurance extra for this `modified` exhaust.
Lets see... K+N air filter increase HP of 5-10% + Borla exhaust of 5-10% and decrease in MPG used(as advertised by venders)
I have a 455HP which means I get 50-100 HP INCREASE! and kilometre range better than a Prius hybrid.

Lol. I feel you haven't set the bar high enough. :)

Borlas are loud last I checked. Your neighbours will lobby for a new 30ft separating wall.
 
I`ve , for years, put up with the loud mouthed goose necked mufflers( like my son`s) going by my house. NOW they can hear what a performance exhaust with such a supercar.
The S type is moderate loud and the Atak is aggressive. You can`t get the touring mode., so I settled for the `S`s type compromise
Since I had the corvette, I was always asked to rev up the motor but with a low volume it was a little tame . Now comes a car with high end` ear music ` as a true sports car should have

I think 25 hp is more realistic, although 50 - 100 would be nice.:Cheers2:
 
Hey Larry! I have Borlas on my car and it's not a rice burner (Eric :p). I've gotten some good compliments on how it sounds (not from people who drive rice burners, Eric :D). It's definitely louder than stock but not too loud. There is drone on the highway, but it's not horrible. However, I've heard if I install headers, the mufflers are LOUD and the drone gets out of control, but I'm in no threat of installing headers anytime soon.
