Well after reading up and watching videos religiously, along with the help of the CAMARO6 forum I’ve decided on the Borla S-Type. Thank you all for the feedback! This is why I turn to the forums with questions like this

Well, my favourite ones are the AWE Touring edition and Corsa Xtreme. They both produce the deep, throaty sound that I am looking for. The only drawback is that they don't have an NPP version. Well, Corsa now produces an NPP exhaust system, but they placed themselves out of this market, as the price is ridiculously high:
https://www.corsaperformance.com/col...-camaro-ss-zl1 I also just found out that Solo Performance makes a great axleback exhaust for the Camaro. The sound is amazing and it comes at a good price too. Again, the drawback is that it comes with no NPP function: https://shop-solo-performance.com/en...oor-sedan.html So all the exhausts that produce the sound that I like lack the NPP function. The only alternative is the Borla exhaust systems, with the ATAK being my choice. Great brand and quality, but I would have to compromise in sound a bit. Plus it's more expensive than the AWE, Corsa and Solo systems. Unfortunately, considering the shipping costs and import taxes to the UK, they would be at the bottom of my list... |

The Borla S-Type Axle Back 11920 is roughly $1300 list. It's quad-tipped but has NO place to install NPP actuators. If you go for the 11924 instead, one of the tips on each muffler is 'missing' and gets replaced with a tip that has a mounting point for the NPP actuator. The 11924 system has a list price of around $1700. How is that it costs $400 more for these tips? If you have the 11920 and decide that you want to cut off those secondary tips and install these 'replacement' tips to gain back the NPP aspect, the adapter kit lists for over $900. I'm sorry.. what? I can buy two mufflers with double tips installed on each for $1300 but you want me to pay $900 for two 10" sections of pipe with a mounting point and a valve? There is no justification for this cost delta other than "because people with NPP will pay it." I'm would seriously consider just moving from my factor dual tip exhaust to a factory quad-tip NPP exhaust simply because stock NPP muffler suitcases are readily available from people that swapped out to something aftermarket. And they're cheap. And it's a distinct upgrade (for me) from the dual tip setup I have currently. |

Try and find someone locally that has the Flowmaster system. The Magnaflow has a drone issue.

I love my Flowmaster 817746 American Thunder axle back Kit.
Sounds great, no drone that I can hear..

Got mine put in on Friday, took me 30min. That included test fitting it & cutting the pipes again as I added a little to the Borla measurements for the future when I have time to get the mid-section out & add v-bands. I cut them so the center of the tip protrudes .75” from the facia. It’s definitely not tucked in like the pics Borla has posted on their site & in the literature. It definitely has bark at cold start. Cruise is pretty subdued, part throttle is notable, & WOT sounds pretty decent. A good balance of performance sound without being annoying. Best deal I could find for the 11922 system was from SS Exhaust for $748 shipped Last edited by gtfoxy; 07-21-2020 at 11:53 AM. |

Just got the American Thunders for my V6. Took six weeks to arrive but the price was great from Juiced with the Camaro6 promotion (I think around $465 and free shipping), gonna try to get them on this week. Nice to hear you're getting no droning.

I have that axle back on my V6. I think you'll be happy with it. To me I thought it sounded as good as the Borla but was obviously cheaper. $465 is a phenomenal price. I paid like $520 from RDP Store if I remember right.

AWE touring is the best sounding exhaust in a 6th gen I have ever heard.
It and headers... Dang it boy ! |

^ I agree 100%. If only they had an NPP version.

Yep that's what I have right now and it's way to loud with catless headers so now I'm going to give the Stainless Works Legend series a shot since it has npp valves.
