Same thing can be said on my brothers ZL1. Catless headers -> stock suitcase = shit. Catless headers -> resonated X -> stock suit case = Good!!

That being said I do get a few burbles and crackles on decel but it's not anything crazy or else I would tune it out.

This is what I want to possibly reduce with getting back to a muffler vice the MBRP that I have. I don't mind the volume and the sound but the tone is a little too much.

I think with the headers the usual thinking is to keep the suitcase NPP because it's so very aggressive in all ways if you don't.

So my setup isn't catless, they are ultra flow cats so might be close to catless? Also, trust me, if I knew how to turn the burbles and crackles OFF, I would !!!!

Some one on the forum very recently showed some one in the tune how to reduce burbles and crackles.

Thanks!!! I actually made some of those changes, I posted the results above somewhere. But, I only made minor changes cause I didn't know exactly what I was doing etc. But I think this thread you found spells it out. I'll run the car this evening and see what the new Stainless Works Legend sounds like, then make the changes in that post. Thanks for the quick find !

OK ! I am a 100% fan of the Stainless Works Legend Axle back !!!! To "me", it sounds so much more BAD A$$ vs Fast and furious'ish! That's probably the wrong way to explain. But the snap crackle and pop is way tamer as well, not even sure why. The only thing I noticed (when in Track mode not Touring mode), is cruising on the express way @ 1500 RPM. There is a slight more resonating/tone (droning?) that is a bit more noticeable than the Corsa Xtreme's were. It does sound deeper, a bit quieter and much more like "classic" muscle car sounding tone to me. And, Yes that's what I was hoping for and what "I" prefer. I'm really impressed with the sound. Here are a few videos of the Stainless Works! Thanks!!!

Start up
Quick Throttle Snap
Express way WOT
a quick idle

EDIT: I forgot to add, now when I start her up, the exhaust is quiet enough that if other people are in close proximity, they don't have the jump scare reaction like they did with the Corsa Xtreme! I actually am happy about that as well.

Nice! I just had to keep reminding myself that you've got headers so there's a sound difference to what I could have.

[2023_ZL1-AUTO]

Yeah... I think the 2" headers were one cause to why my Corsa Xtreme axle back sounds kind of harsh as they did. I think it would have sounded better with the 2" headers, if I would have kept the stock suite case muffler. But these 2" CSP (Stainless Works) headers and the Stainless Works Legend axle back sound phenomenal together !

I decided to pull the trigger and ordered a JMS Fuel Max system from Ted at Jannetty Racing. I'll finally have a reason to install the DSX Flex Fuel kit I've had now for months! Jannetty shipped the device quick and it will arrive today. I might start the install this weekend. I've found some good references here on the form and Jannetty's website, so I think I'll be good to go ! I still have to find a local Dyno so I can get her numbers !!!

Also, ordered a DSX Billet LT4 Supercharger Cover and decided to get the big DSX Tuning logo laser etched !

Great choice with the JMS and working with TED!
