DIY - NPP Exhaust Controller
To those of you interested, here is how to make your own exhaust controller. I am showing you two methods ...
Look at the attachments. One illustrates the electrical schematic for each option (manual switch or remote relay) and the other illustrates how to modify one of the power taps to accommodate the circuit for the flapper valves. Parts Required for Manual Switch Option
Parts Required for Remote Relay Option
Note: Getting the male tab disconnect might be problematic when you only need a single piece. As an alternative, you can also strip the end of the wire about 3/16", twist the copper conductors tightly and then tin the end with solder. This will make the end rigid. You can then insert the rigid end into the power tap where the male disconnect would go. Secure the wire to the main wire of the power tap with a bit of electrical tape or shrink wrap tubing. Also, the illustrations indicate ATO Fuses and power tap. The ATO fuses are for Aston Martin. Camaro Gen5 uses Mini fuses (aka ATM). The Camaro Gen6 uses Micro2 series fuses.

Hey Steve,
Do you know where to buy the 0.110 x 0.032 male tab disconnects? I find them on Amazon, but it's a pack of 100 for $16. I'm local to you as well if you know of any places in the valley. Fry's maybe? |

Can you please explain what exactly is being controlled when this switch is on or off?

I built a remote relay for my npp. It's super simple to do. Best part is I use the garage door opener buttons to switch it on and off not the crappy controllers it comes with

Can't you just change the setting on the infotainment to achieve the same thing? Track = open, Stealth = closed? Or is Track not open all the time?

I'm not seeing any fuse that's grounded. The only thing grounded in the schematic is the relay.

Look at the big red circle, polarity on a fuse.
