[QUOTE="WPGZ06, post: 245063, member: 4406"] Depends on the sound/tone your after and your budget. For best bang for the buck for power and sound, LT headers and keep the rest oem, sounds amazing but you will require some slight modifications and a tune is usually recommended. It is true many in the past went purely with the xpipe, keeping the stock catback, but that was before when the OR midpipes were available. They are no longer being manufactured so all you will find is a few who still make a catted xpipe, but not many. If dead set on a midpipe, just check out the forum here and other big vette forums in the for sale section for a used OR xpipe. Do not waste your money on a Catted aftermarket xpipe, oem is just as good. axleback catbacks are abundant, totally up to what you prefer for sound and then if you want to keep NPP function (if you have it), costs here can be affordable up to insanity (see akrapovic!!. Typically you do this purely for the sound, a little power gain but other mods will net you more bang for the buck compared to CB by itself. lastly, can do the entire system: catback, midpipe and headers. This will require a bigger budget. I personally have the Corsa OR xpipe with Xtreme catback, and got myself custom powder coated tips made. I will eventually be adding the ARH mid-length headers purely for the additional sound (if want the power factor go for LT headers). Some will say you need tune with midlength, but from my research it is not needed. But if you want to get the most from mid lengths you need to partner it with a CAI + tune and then you will feel it. If don't want to mess with tune, go with xpipe, or catback, or both. Then simply find the sound you like that matches your budget. personally I like Corsa or AWE on C7 [/QUOTE]
