What exhaust did you go with?
For those of you who didn't get the performance exhaust from the factory what automatic setup are you going with? I'm looking for a cat back, no aftermarket headers.....yet lol

So far, I've only seen Magnaflow, Flowmaster and Billy Boat systems available to purchase right now. Flowmaster looks ceap, with painted mufflers and aluminized pipes. They are know for rusting out pretty quick too. Billy Boat has a couple of different kits available, and while of nicely polished stainless steel, they look cobbled together from leftover pieces of pipe welded together. Somehow, they just don't look like they flow well. Magnaflow it top notch in appearance, and sounds really nice in the you tube clios I've found. However, they jacked the price for the cat back system to over $3000! I had every intention of getting it for mine until price more than doubled.
Borla and Corsa are both working on C7 systems, but as io last night, neither were available to purchase, and no pricing given. I'm leaning toward Corsa - a couole of friends have their exhaust in their C6's and Cirsa sounded really good. Of couse, if prices as ridiculous as Magnaflow come up, my plan may change again.

just can't get enough

Way overpriced at near 3K for Magnaflow's exhaust set... not many takers since they doubled the price. Many of us are still waiting for what Corsa and Borla finally reveal. |

The NPP option is just fine with me. Had it on my '08 coupe and loved it.

Yeah, I'm thinking either borla or corsa depending on the sound/price

I went with the NPP, but hands down, it would be a Corsa. I have one on my Hemi Magnum and it is just perfect!

My Billy Boat system shipped last week. I got the Speedway tips & had them jet-coated black. Headers & no cat x-pipe are waiting at the installer. I have the NPP and ordered the Fusion Bi-Modal from BB, so I'll retain that function. I love the look of the speedway tips, I just don't like the round tips on C7s, considering the complete tail section is all angular. I'll post pics as soon as it's all installed.

I have the corsa sport with polished tips. It looks and sounds awesome, on start up Ive startle people unaware walking along the sidewalk pretty funny. I've also seen people have full body celebrations when I left the shine and show today.
