exhaust system questions

was wondering how this exaust system rates compared to whats on a stock z06..

I can get it for a pretty good deal but was wondering if its even worth it, or is it a downgrade from the stock system.

thanks

You may be new... but a very good first choice, some like the 2 tip while other prefer the quad setup. It's you choice but either is the aftermarket exhaust that I would recommend, oh ya.. and I love mine.

The Borla's sound great if you don't mind the additional weight!

The quad tip Borla Stingers actually weight the same as our stock Ti system. No weight penalties! I would think the 2 tip would be the same or less.

That's a good system. But, it's not the only good system.

p.s. I love my GHLs.
