        i have always gone with an aftermarket exhaust for my Corvettes — that is until my C7 Z06. If it sounds this good when in person, could be I again avoid needing to spend money on a C8’s aftermarket one too.

                      But it's hard to beat the Corvette factory side exhausts.
                      Save the wave.

                          The C8 is going to sound more powerful and more natural, since the whole exhaust length is so much shorter. Once it's out of the headers, the sound is out in the open.

                            It would be very difficult to do, if not impossible, with the need to put two cats per side in the system. Not even sure how it could be done or how it would look on a ME.
