Hi Bill--
Well, we got our first snow yesterday--a couple of inches of wet heavy stuff. I am sure you don't miss that!

You may have seen other posts on this subject, but what I did after 20+ years of various loud exhausts on my ZR-1s was to return to my stock '95 exhaust (since the late model system has a low restriction resonator) and I added electric cutouts in front of the mufflers. Best of both worlds--stock look, quiet sound when I want it and anywhere from a low rumble to wide open straight pipes if I am racing or just want to scare small children. If you search for "cutouts" you will probably find lots of detail on mine and others. My system on the '95 (which I sold last Feb) had headers and no cats. But nothing wrong with doing nothing. The stock system still sounds pretty good if muted somewhat. Take your time and listen to as many systems as you can to get a sense of what you might like. Overall, simply enjoy the car-they are really a lot of fun. --Bob
