This 3-inch inlet Borla Cat-Back system is engineered for the Chevrolet Corvette C8 Z06 5.5L V8 and includes NPP dual mode exhaust valves (there are no DFM valves on the Z06). It delivers the aggressive ATAK sound with no drone inside the vehicle and uses Borla's patented SwitchFire design to blend combustion pulses from both sides of the engine for improved performance and a custom sound. Tips are not included; the exhaust exits through the factory tips mounted in the valance, so reuse the original equipment tips or install the optional Borla tips 60740CFSB. Strategically placed heat shielding is included, and the system includes a wiring harness extender for the passenger-side NPP valve. After installation, the NPP valve controllers should be recalibrated per GM Document ID 5406413. Borla Cat-Back systems use patented straight-through, multi-core technology built from T-304 stainless steel. This system mounts behind the factory catalytic converters and is 50-state emissions legal. Borla exhaust systems are handmade in the USA.
