They said the ZL1 has different intake and exhaust, what are they specifically talking about?
No, it's still the 1.7L blower...the engine is still an LT4.

The intake and exhaust modifications they're discussing are most likely referencing the fact that the engine was brought from Corvette platform to Camaro with some custom changes for fitment, etc (The Corvette is a much tighter package to deal with).

It still uses a panel filter/box.

Really over the top whine, like Eaton TVS series stuff (I believe)...that can be a bit obnoxious.
I agree 100%.
