Aftermarket exhaust that sounds like NPP

I absolutely love exhaust sound of the ZL1, its personal preference, I can't recall hearing anything else I thought sounded nearly as good.
I am guessing the exhaust note of the LS3 would be pretty much identical with the NPP, although I have not been around the NPP ls3 cars nearly as much as the ZL1, although seeing/hearing them in traffic they do seem to sound the same.

I am wondering is if there's a system out there, or a way to make my stock exhaust (muffler delete etc) sound close to the same as the NPP system without spending the $1500+ on the NPP system its self.

I havent heard too many aftermarket exhausts on the camaros, but one that comes to mind that I did hear was a pypes axle back, and that removed the mufflers completely, but didnt sound nearly as good, or loud as the NPP does with the flaps open.

If any of you have heard the NPP and something else that sounds very close to it I would appreciate it if you shared, thanks!

I agree with you on the sound of the NPP. Check the marketplace for your area and you may catch someone selling theirs. This is what I did and it was much much less than $1500.

The dual mode exhaust was a must have for me, I was willing to settle on the other options. It really sold me on this car in the end, good luck finding a similar setup or used one, no regrets here.

I really like the sound of the NPP exhaust system, especially with Kooks headers & HF Cats.
Also you pull the fuse to have it open all the time, or add a switching device to turn it on or off.
