After checking the media clip, my vote goes to Borla.

Anybody has a sample for Loudmouth? I'm looking for the LOUDEST muffler system for Z06. Any recommendation also where to order?

Thank you,
Tambeng

Of the 3 sound clips I definitely like the Borla.
I have the Corsa Ti on order, but the sound of those Stingers
are really awesome!

Has anyone out there heard the Corsa Ti AND Borla Stingers?
Maybe give an opinion of the two. Thanks.

Well let me tell you, Chicago Z06, I made my decision today and
went with the Borla Stingers. It took a lot of forum browsing, searches and sound clips. So without actually hearing either in person I became sold on the Borlas.
Most opinions that people had seemed to coincide with what I was looking for. I for one, love the 2 tips. So that wasn't a factor, in fact, between the Corsa Ti and Borla Stinger, both have 2 tips. The weight difference with the Stingers are 4 lbs over stock. I could lose that by skipping my lunches this week.
The sound clip on this thread really sold me on the Borlas. It sounded like the exact V8 rumble I was looking for.
Many of the forum vendors are getting theirs on July 18th, supposedly there won't be another batch for 2 months.
If anyone's thinking Stinger, then now is the time.

Borla Stinger

Corsa Indy

B&B RPT

Myself, I would go with the Stingers!
I'm so bummed out -- I clicked the sound links and get "can't find the page" messages. Are the links still working?

Thanks!~

Stingers and long tube headers sounds the best. For now I'm going with FLP long tube headers and the factory Titanium system.

Okay - Let's see if we can get some attention - maybe Moto or one of the site administrators can reload the link.

Couldn't get the links to work, but I've heard all 3 in person and I like the B&B PRT the best. Just a personal preference, like so many things discussed here!

I don't think I could make that decision without hearing a system in person. Sound clips really never do anything justice. The logical approach for me would be a set of FLP LT headers and use the stock Z06 Ti exhaust, but I'd like to hear some of the other systems. Maybe they'll be a get together in the Chicago area or midwest this coming summer.

Another alternative are the GHL exhaust system which if you like the look of the stock exhaust they 4/4 inch tips and sound comparable to the stingers.
