Need exhaust help please !

I have a 2021 with NPP, how do I go about making it louder ? Is an axle back gonna make it louder or will it sound similar to NPP? How do you go about making these cars louder ? Catback ?

The NPP is "basically" a catback. Try going into the settings and set the exhaust to Track.

He has the LT1 - no Track mode

Leave the car in sport mode, but these cars are somewhat quiet stock.

I like my Corsa NPP, rpetty amazing sound - significantly louder when valves are open, about stock track mode loud with valves closed.

Some people pull the npp fuse so the valves stay fully open all of the time.

I cut my secondary cats and muffler delete. Thing was super loud all the time on my NPP. I dug it, some don't. Only thing is it's loud all the time, so if you want it to be in stealth mode that's a no-go at that point.

So there is no "track" option even in the Exhaust settings? Or a setting to hold them open? If not, pull the fuse and see if that helps

This.


OP do the fuse pull first before shelling out $$$ for a full catback system.



If you like the sound after the fuse pull, you only need to put the fuse back in to return it to stock.

Another option (assuming you don't live in California) would be to remove the 2 rear catalytic converters. That should provide a deeper and louder sound.

Did it get much louder ? Do you still have secondary cats ? I was thinking about the MBRP axle back or AWE track axle back but don’t know if it will be much louder than npp

Did you have NPP? Did taking off secondary cats make a big difference ?
