So this works with NPP, right??? I only care for two modes, track and stealth.. No reason for the middle lol.. Stealth for obvious reasons..


How much and when!??! Could these be installed by a fairly novice person such as myself? Or better to take it to a shop?

Yes, we will have exhaust systems for both the manual and the automatic, with or without NPP. We want to make sure we cover all the options! You can sign up to be notified when the products are released on our website, here: http://www.borla.com/chevy-2016-camaro-exhaust-systems/.

Our exhaust systems come with installation instructions so that you can do it yourself, however, some systems are easier to install than others... Our instructions include a list of tools you need, the steps to remove your stock exhaust, the steps to install our exhaust, notes/recommendations, and pictures. Some exhaust systems require cutting, and it would definitely help if you had a lift to use, but it's really up to you and how experienced and confident you feel about being able to correctly do it yourself.

Please feel free to reach out to our customer service team Monday-Friday 7:30am-4pm PST if you ever have any questions.

Thank you, let me see what it would cost for someone else to do it. I have no tools and would be working with a friend... I'm either doing new rims or exhaust on the car.. This Borla exhaust has great tone to it, so this might win!!!!

I would love to hear it in Stealth first!

I can attest that the instructions that do come with the borla products are legit. Plus if you have any problems like mentioned you can call them and they are VERY helpful. You can also DOWNLOAD PDF instructions which will make your life so much easier as well. I always have a laptop or my phone out in the garage with me when I am doing work on the car so it's much easier to read the PDF AND to watch youtube how - to videos on the laptop.

I do wish Borla didn't make the M6 NPP folks wait forever on parts because of the m6, A8 non-npp parts... At least the info and instructions (if done) could've been released so we could all make our plans for it. Like... Tools needed? Check if we have em or want to get them and many other tiny little things...

Closer to the front are the primary cats. Past that are the un-monitored secondary cats that I have removed from my car but that one still has it which are stock and as you can see the borla coming to it which is being clamped on.

Mine has a 2.5'' straight pipe on each side past the primary cats (and knowing borla, they are probably 2.75'' just like OEM and perfect for LT1).

That's the system from all I can tell (without seeing it in person) is a past secondary cat back system. I see it in 2 pieces. The axle back (muffler and tips) clamped on and the gigantic xpipe that goes to the factory secondary cats. Which makes you correct Ricardo, wasn't trying to be a dick and if I came across that way, I apologize. I am just thinking out loud / getting my facts straight! I personally am after an xpipe (no resonator, no cats no emissions friendly bs) that bolts DIRECTLY onto the primary cats and then I cut the stock pipe somewhere to clamp on to the stock NPP mufflers. Just like an off-road only borla xpipe they have for the c7 And of course it is very safe to assume that Borla has some headers that will be bolt on to the engine and clamped together with the xpipe that's on the BEE 2.0.

The factory NPP is 1 gigantic system that goes allllll the way up to the primary cats. So Factory NPP includes the tips - muffler - xpipe - un-monitored cats. Then primary cats and headers.
