Start up exhaust settings
- Thread starter Csc
- Start date
I am usually always in My Mode, where I have the exhaust at full sound. It always starts up in My Mode, with full sound.
One step quieter is “Stealth” mode…give it a try. That is what I set in ”My” mode for sneaking out of the neighbourhood without waking the dead (Magnaflow exhaust & ARH headers). Happy motoring!
The C8, like many new cars revs higher and has a very rich fuel mixture with the start-up cycle of about 20 seconds. This is to super heat the cats so they clean the exhaust faster. I don’t know what Chevy has in mind when it offers “Tour” and ”Stealth” modes, but they do. My C8 is quieter on the “Stealth” mode, not sure how, why., or if I am the only owner to experience this. Happy Motoring.
The stealth mode is an exhaust setting when you choose the various setup options for My Mode or Z Mode. It isn’t a standalone setting when you turn the dial.Funny, I don't recall seeing stealth mode, but then I've never looked! lol
I'll check it out. The manual shows it and I do remember now that you mention it. Perhaps tour sends some exhaust through both outlets. My outboard tips are black. That should tell you what I use.
Regardless of what setting I have when I turn the car off, it always goes back to Tour mode on start up.
No idea. It has always started in My Mode after I shut it down in My Mode.
Can't wait till I can add something to posts like this! I am still waiting for my Dealer and GM to go to the Prom, where perhaps they can hook up and my car will become a reality 9 months later! LOL Here's to hoping that Bowling Green has some fast swimmers!
Page 207 of the 2021 manual:
Have not tried it but I am hoping I can customize My Mode so the exhaust is in stealth at startup so a bit quieter. I would use My Mode simply for starting and the go Tour or Sport and then back to My Mode when parking .

If you are going to do all that, you should use Zmode and then go back to mymode when parking. Both of those modes are adjustable to whatever you want.
