Crap, that's the idle, lopey sound that I want!

This C7 probably have over 650WHP.. Not sure what exhaust is available to get that lopey idle sound without tinkering with the cam.

Katech offers packages as well.. not bad at all

Well, if I can find an exhaust that can amplify the idle sound I will be happy lol. The NPP does a good job but if the burble is a bit louder that would be awesome

Its from the C7 forums

"I'm happy to report that the first 427 LT1 has been installed in a 2014 Stingray and tested at Katech Track Attack over the weekend. No overheating even when driven hard by Andy Pilgrim. The car features our 700hp 620lb-ft 427 LT1, upgraded dry sump system with secondary scavenge pump, oil-to-water cooler, and a Dewitts radiator."

I love the sound too. But it does get old with a daily driver. So I like to have a dedicated hooligan machine.
