I would like to thank everyone for their input and direction (especially KingLT1). I have decided on TSP headers (ceramic coated), and catted X pipe (to pass emissions), and a tune. Local Speed shop going to do work as this is out of my wheelhouse due to no lift and no help...lol. Tuner recommended I wait until I get 1000 miles on car before I put on the E85 flex fuel kit and run E85. Current stock 2SS is about 380-390 rwhp so this mod should add about 40 rwhp per the Tuner. I would be happy with 25, but will see after I see the charts on the tune. Again... appreciate everyone's input and direction to spend the $$$ wisely!

Great choice man! You're going to LOVE what headers and a tune do for the car. I'm jealous.

Awesome. Glad this forum could help. KingLT1 is definitely an asset. It’s nice having folks who can tune on here outside of the shops and willing to give info. ��

Parts should be in next week, but waiting on Jeep Dealer to fix my daily driver (warranty work) so I can drop off the Camaro. I will post the results for everyone here just in case someone wants to do the same mod.

If you dont have a 2k budget, go with MBRP axle back T409(what I got). It sounds great but have some drone. Borla S type sounds good but too quiet

2K budget.... headers (ceramic coated), x pipe, and tune is more than $2K...
I am OK with the tune (and possible void powertrain warranty, but will work with local dealer if that issue arises).
Not the route some people would take if car is heavily financed, or daily driver. I have a Borla ATAK exhaust on my 2019 Jeep, and it sounds nice for a V6, and pretty simple install.
Next mod will probably be the Whipple 3.0 and discussing with Whipple now (4 week lag time on shipping per Whipple at the moment)

Finally got the car in the shop for the install. Had to wait a month on the ceramic coating guy to coat the headers. So refresh here is the mod: 2" TSP headers (ceramic coated), X pipe catted, cold air inductions CAI, and a tune. (I got an E85 kit installed to run E85 later) with stock NPP exhaust
2022 2SS stock rwhp- 380-385. With mod and tune: 442 rwhp, and 453 wtq.
Not a bad pick up for headers, X pipe, CAI and tune. (kept current NPP exhaust for now)

I had a Borla on my C6 Corvette and loved the deep tone. It also had Kooks long tube headers and cats along with a tune.
I agree. I thought I might buy the Corsa dual mode exhaust, but I’ve come to the conclusion I’m completely happy with the stock NPP exhaust. I think going with anything louder would just attract negative attention. To be honest, it’s already pretty obnoxious in track mode as-is, but sometimes I want to be a little obnoxious.

first of all, if thats auto, you would get a CEL unless you delete AFM, i had mbrp axle back with sec cats delete, the drone is a pain when you drive your car in the morning. MBRP is def the loudest but never tried the catback
