WTB: Flowmaster 17115 Cat-Back Exhaust

[zr1esq]

Looking to add some muscle to the ZR1 - stock sucks. Anyone out there with a really nice used one or a new in the box? Thank you!

Oh boy, you just opened the exhaust floodgates...

I know - everyone has their favorite exhaust - corsa being the "best" in terms of performance - I'm after the sound and some more power - not looking to squeeze every last ounce of power from a cat back system. I had a Corsa on a CTS-V I owned - liked it a lot but for the Vette looking for the trademark Flowmaster sound.

I had Corsa on mine and liked it pretty well. I knew I was getting the most power that any aftermarket ZR-1 system would give me, especially considering that I had no cats on my car. That said, I always did wonder how it would have sounded with one of the "throatier" systems. My understanding is that the Flowmaster will probably do a good job of giving you that deeper sound that you want. Only issue with them is that it's a 2-1-2 system: the header pipes join into a single resonator, and that's bound to lead to a bit more restriction. Just something to think about.

They've been discontinued for several years, so best of luck finding one. Phrogs had one not too long ago, but I think he finally sold it.

I agree - I'm not going to be too picky - anything seems better than stock. I've always been a big magnaflow fan but seems that they are not too popular on the zr1.

I have both FM and Corsa.. The FM sounds best.

I have a used one and I'm in NYC Queens to be exact you can have it for 100 bucks. It was on a C4 non Z so not sure if it will fit right.

I had the MF cat back system on my ZR and liked it just fine. However, in terms of power it proved a bit restrictive. But it produced a nice mellow sound, no drone and looked great. One down side. The hangar mechanism sucked.
But you can pick up the system fairly inexpensively.

Hey G8,

What part of Queens? We lived in South OZ and Howard Beach.

Cool I'm in Astoria like 15 20 min from Howard beach.

I appreciate the offer - I pulled the trigger on an OBX system from ebay - they had a make an offer option and feel like I got a decent deal. Finding a flowmaster would have been nice but beggers can't be choosers.
