Anyone have a Forza exhaust controller?

So I got a Hyper Blue 2SS from Becky 2 nights ago. Before this car my last toy was a 2011 corvette with the NPP and Mild 2 Wild. I liked being able to go from loud to quiet with the push of a button as opposed to going through the Camaro's menus. Anyone have the Forza exhaust controoler? If so what do you think?

Never heard of anyone using this. My opinion? Clicking the mode selection once to go from Touring to Sport is pretty easy.

I have a mild to wild controller on mine. I use the homelink buttons to switch back and fourth.

What is the advantage of this type of system over clicking the mode selector to Sport and then back to Tour? And if you want to, back to Sport?

In Sport and Track the valves still close when cruising. With the controller you can keep them full open all the time. It's like doing the fuse pull but being able to go back to normal operation with a push of a button.

I've got the Forza exhaust controller programed to the home link buttons. Works as advertized and removable if needed.

I've got the Forza and mapped it to the Home Link buttons (you need 2 free buttons - 1 for open and 1 for close). Been using it all summer and works every single time. Just be careful where you place under the hood. It's a lot more heat resistant than the mild to wild kit, but it's not impervious. Mine's in a good spot and haven't had any issues at all. Great for me since I have long tubes and high flow cats w/NPP. You also never know when that Drive Mode button is going to vanish on your MyLink, so this is perfect solution.

One caveat - you have to leave your car set in Stealth for it to work. It'll then be all the way open at the push of a button in every single gear. If you want to hear it loud at start up, just push your button right as you're starting the car.

If you decide you don't want to use it anymore, just set your car to track or sport from the screen and it'll start up loud every time.

So on a non NPP car it can be used with an after market exhaust that was designed for NPP?

If you know which fuse is used to control your NPP baffles, I don't see why not.

You can build your own for about $30 and use a remote or map it to your homelink buttons. Super easy and hides under the fuse box lid and can be removed for warranty work in under a minute. That's what I did.

same here it works great and also has remote controls so if you remote start in the am and forgot to close it you just hit the fob button. Easy install
