Did chevy change the tune for 2019 ss?

I've noticed in some videos of the 19 ss' that the exhaust crackles and pops way harder than the previous models. Did chevy change the tune or what?! So jelly.

This guy's review shows a burbling beast of a 1le.

This was noticed by a buddy as well who test drove one. The salesman has an 18 SS 1LE and noticed it as well.

At CamaroFest, Al specifically mentioned "pops and burbles" being tuned into the '19 SS when discussing the A10. Maybe they changed the tune for both?

Yes pops and burbles added to the Cal for the 19ss. Notice it more in manuals on tip off. Sadly not compatible with the pre refresh cars

I figured it's something we can get tuned into our cars aftermarket. I was just hoping it was something easy like an exhaust component Change in the19 that can swap in to achieve the same result.

I have a 19 1le and it pops like no other. It’s louder when car is still warming up (gunshot loud), and is more likely to happen in track mode since there is less rev hang than tour or sport.

The last thing I want is my exhaust to pop. Nothing gets a cop's attention more than something that sounds like a gun blast.

If you don’t engine brake it won’t do it. Also that’s what NPP is for.

Well, I'm not saying the 2019 doesn't pop more, but pretty easy to make my 2016 pop quite loudly if I want to. Just put her in manual mode and a lower gear, and let the engine braking do it's thing when cruising around. " Pop Pop Growl grumble grumble pop"
