Very cool! I like the idea of it but not sure how I could make that work with my current cut-out system and the modified supertrapp tips I run to appease the noise police.

Thanks Lee for the pictures.

I'm trying to keep it simple and cost effective.
Basicly make it fit stock exhaust manifolds just like most/all the after market SS exhausts.

Full 3" inch, X-pipe, 2 Titanium mufflers with dual round 3" or 2 1/2" outlets cut at a 45 degree angle, since the only part of our exhaust that shows is the tips for those that want chrome tips can always use slip on chrome tips.
This set up keeps cost down.

This price is for 10 sets i will need full payment once we start the process you are stuck with a titanium exhaust
I can do PayPal @ $1800

You can also email me: PeteZR1@gmail.com

Bob,

Look at the Z06 NPP tips for noise reduction.

I've been leaning more to Bob Banks' set-up, of late. Bob (Marc Haibeck) installed 'lectric cutouts just aft of the differential. I don't know what he had for mufflers tho. More for availability (NPPs are getting hard to find. Seems the word got out).

That said, YOUR setup with the Dynamax (17288s) and NPPs is friggin awesome, IMO. And, "Mike 100" went with an electric controller for his NPPs, due to the fact riding in the mountains would result in low plenum pressure causing the NPPs to trigger whenever climbing (IIRC). (Are yours electric too??)

Loco: And, I came across what sounded like an NPP-like setup advertised by B&B; their "FUSION" exhaust, IIRC. I also recall it was on the pricey side for the setup - but I haven't looked again for a while. Coupled with titanium plumbing, might be a consideration. (I haven't see the mufflers to know if the NPP approach would work. Maybe Pete would know?)

Paul,

My setup isn’t as elaborate as Mike’s. I have s manual switch in the console that gives me full open or full closed. I usually drive closed. Mellow sound.

Paul, I removed my Corsa and put my entire stock '95 exhaust system (including stock mufflers) back on and Marc installed the cutouts. He originally installed them where you said, just aft of the differential, his normal position. But that eliminated the spare tire carrier, and I finally decided that I wanted to keep my spare tire carrier so we worked out a position just ahead of the mufflers that had enough space for the cutout motors (Tony Davila had done this with manual cutouts). I also crafted my own switch, a rocker switch hidden under the carpet on the passenger side of the console. It was a perfect system for me.--Bob

I'm currently running electric cut-outs through Warlock bypass mufflers, which works and sounds great... but they are heavy bitches, about 15lbs each so I'd love to lighten her up a bit. The cut-outs open is worth about 10rwhp.
